EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT

This Order, made under section 3A of the European Parliament (Pay and Pensions) Act 1979, amends section 3 of that Act in order to equate the resettlement grant provision for Members of the European Parliament with that made for Members of the House of Commons pursuant to a resolution of the House of Commons dated 22nd May 1991. The effect of the amendment is that a resettlement grant is payable to all Members of the European Parliament regardless of their age, who at a general election either do not stand for election or, if they do so, are not re-elected. The amount of the grant payable varies in accordance with age and length of service.
