Power to make supplementary provisions

17 (1) His Majesty may by Order in Council make such provision as appears to Him necessary or expedient to avoid interruption or inconvenience in the administration of justice or the discharge of other functions of justices (including recorders) in consequence of the establishment or abolition by this Act of any commission of the peace or court of quarter sessions, or of any change made by this Act in the area in which any court of quarter sessions or justices have jurisdiction.

Savings on separation of counties and county boroughs

18 (1) Where any existing enactment contains, in relation to justices of the peace, a reference to a particular county which at the passing of this Act is treated for purposes of justices as including any county borough, His Majesty may by Order in Council direct that the enactment shall apply in relation to the county borough as it applies in relation to the county, if it appears to Him expedient so to do for the purpose of giving effect to the intention of that enactment.

Saving for Romney Marsh

21 Nothing in this Act shall affect the election, appointment or functions of any member or officer of the reputed corporation of the bailiff, jurats and commonalty of Romney Marsh, or of the reputed corporation of the lords, bailiff and jurats of Romney Marsh, except that no person shall by virtue of any such election or appointment be a justice of the peace for Romney Marsh or exercise any functions attached by charter or otherwise to the office of such a justice and for the purpose of any such functions the liberty of Romney Marsh shall merge in the county of Kent and for the purpose of coroners become part of the Hythe coroner's district.

PART II Transitional Provisions

10 Where under the proviso to subsection (1) of section twenty of the 1937 Act notice was given by a justices' clerk excluding the application of that Act in relation to his clerkship, the notice shall have the same effect to exclude the 1937 Act as applied by this Act.

11 An existing clerk or employee shall be entitled to the benefit of subsection (1) of section thirteen of the 1937 Act on becoming by virtue of subsection (1) of section twenty-three of this Act a contributory employee of a magistrates' courts committee without giving the information required by the proviso to that subsection.

Provided that if, in the case of a justices' clerk who is a part time officer, it is not possible to determine on the said date whether he then becomes a contributory employee of the magistrates' courts committee by virtue of any order of the Secretary of State under paragraph 1 of this Schedule (whether because his salary under section nineteen of this Act has not then been fixed or because the order gives him an option exercisable after that date or for similar reasons), the reference to be substituted in the said subsection (2) shall be a reference to the date on which it becomes possible to determine that question.

(2) In relation to an existing clerk or employee who immediately before the coming into force of section nineteen of this Act has attained the age of sixty-five years and is not a contributory employee by virtue of section twenty of the 1937 Act, subsection (5) of section eight of that Act (which relates to the remuneration to be taken into account in fixing the rate of pension) shall have effect with the following modifications:—

(a) the expression " service " in that subsection shall include any service rendered after attaining the said age which it would have included if rendered before attaining it; and

(b) for any reference to the appointed day in proviso (a) to that subsection there shall be substituted a reference to the date of the coming into force of section nineteen of this Act.

13 (1) In relation to an existing or former clerk or employee, the expression " service " shall include, in addition to any service within the meaning assigned to that expression by Part III of the 1937 Act or which he is otherwise entitled to reckon apart from this paragraph, any service rendered after attaining the age of eighteen years and before attaining the age of sixty-five years, being either—

(a) service as a justices' clerk; or

(b) service in the employment of a justices' clerk or clerks during which he devoted substantially the whole of his time to assisting the justices' clerk or clerks in the performance of the duties appertaining to his or their clerkship or clerkships or partly to that and partly to duties under a local authority; or

(c) service as collecting officer or in the employment of a collecting officer or officers during which he devoted substantially the whole of his time to performing or assisting in the performance of the duties of collecting officer or partly to that and partly to duties under a local authority:

(ii) paragraph (c) of this sub-paragraph shall apply only in the case of an existing clerk or employee.

(2) Where this paragraph has applied to a person, and he is at any time a contributory employee otherwise than in the capacity in which it applied to him, the expression " service " shall include any service which it included in relation to him in that capacity.

(3) Where a person is entitled to reckon any period as service by virtue only of proviso (i) to sub-paragraph (1) of this paragraph, he shall be entitled to reckon that period as contributing service if—

(a) he would have been required to pay contributions in respect of that period had he not attained the age of sixty-five years; and

(b) within three months after the date of the coming into force of section nineteen of this Act he pays to the council to whom he pays contributions immediately after that date a sum equal to the contributions which he would have been required to pay as aforesaid;

and, where he does so, the sum shall be deemed to be contributions in respect of that period.

(4) In this and the two next following paragraphs, references to a justices' clerk include a clerk to the justices of a liberty.

14 Where an existing or former clerk or employee has been collecting officer of any court, or employed by the collecting officer of any court to assist him in the performance of his duties as such the time devoted by him thereto and his remuneration in respect thereof during any period when he was clerk of that court, or was employed by that clerk to assist him in the duties appertaining to his clerkship, shall be treated in reckoning his service under the last foregoing paragraph and the remuneration in respect of that service as time devoted to and remuneration in respect of the duties of the clerkship or the employment by the clerk in connection with those duties, as the case may be.

15 A person's remuneration as justices' clerk for any period for which he is not or was not paid a salary determined in accordance with section twenty-six of this Act, and a person's remuneration as collecting officer for any period, shall be taken to be or have been the salary and other payments paid or made to him as such and retained by him for his own use, after deducting the amount of any salaries or other sums paid by him to persons employed by him in connection with his duties as clerk or collecting officer, and after deducting the amount of his office expenses (if any).

16 In relation to an existing clerk or employee, paragraph (A) of Part III of the Second Schedule to the 1937 Act (which confers special rights on persons superannuable before that Act) shall continue to apply if it applied in relation to him immediately before he ceased to be a contributory employee by virtue of section twenty of that Act.

17 (1) Every administering authority maintaining a superannuation fund to which employees of any relevant council contribute shall obtain from an actuary a certificate as to the amount necessary to be paid by the council into the fund annually during a period not exceeding twenty years on account of the burden imposed on the fund by this Act in respect of existing clerks or employees who become by virtue of subsection (1), (5) or (6) of section twenty-three thereof contributory employees of the magistrates' courts committee set up to act for the area of the council.

(2) The place of the magistrate as a justice for any such borough shall not be supplied by another justice for the county of Stafford (as provided by section twenty of the Staffordshire Potteries Stipendiary Justice Act, 1871) but may when requisite be supplied by another justice for the borough.

(2) The foregoing sub-paragraph shall apply to a county or borough justice taking the place of either of the said magistrates as it applies to the magistrate.

4 (1) Any provision of the Staffordshire Potteries Stipendiary Justice Acts, 1839 to 1895, or of the South Staffordshire Stipendiary Justice Act, 1899, as to a clerk of accounts appointed by the commissioners thereunder shall cease to have effect, and any functions which would apart from this provision be discharged by such a clerk shall be discharged instead by the clerk to the stipendiary magistrate.
