10.—(1) Subject to paragraphs (2) and (3), for the purposes of this Order the final salary of an office holder (or his last salary before death) shall be the annual rate of salary which the office holder is receiving immediately before his ceases to hold office together with any sum which is reckoned as an additional part of his salary for pension purposes.
(2) Where—
(a)an office holder has two or more periods of relevant service, and
(b)an election is made by or in respect of him, pursuant to any enactment relating to the payment of superannuation benefits in respect of persons who have served continuously in more than one office, in favour of the receipt of benefits payable under the relevant enactment which relates to an office held by him other than the last,
then for the purposes of this Order, the final salary of that office holder (or his last salary before death) shall be that which would have been arrived at under paragraph (1) if he had continued to hold the earlier office until the date when he ceased to hold office.
(3) For the purposes of Articles 6, 7 and 11(2) there shall be excluded from the salary by reference to which the annual rate of the office holder's or widow's pension is to be calculated any amount of earnings except so much (if any) as would, if expressed as a weekly rate, exceed one and a half times the lower earnings limit but would not exceed the upper earnings limit.
(4) In paragraph (3), references to the lower and upper earnings limits, in relation to any earnings, are references to those limits as in force when the earnings are paid.
