Protection of rights and obligations
21. (1) In any case where, immediately prior to the date on which under the Act a transferred employee was first transferred or became entitled to participate in the benefits of a different superannuation fund, the Acts of 1937 to 1953 and the regulations made thereunder applied to him, either as modified or extended by the provisions of any local Act or scheme or together with any such provisions, the Acts of 1937 to 1953 and the regulations made thereunder shall have effect in relation to him for the appropriate period as if they—
(a) required him to make contributions at the like rate as he would have been liable to make and conferred on him rights corresponding with those which he would have enjoyed if he had remained in the employment of the authority from which he was transferred or, as the case may be, had continued to be entitled to participate in the benefits of his former superannuation fund, and
(b) conferred on any authority to which he is transferred under the Act any discretionary power to pay or to increase pensions, lump sums or gratuities to or in respect of him which was exercisable by the authority from which he was first transferred, or, as the case may be, provided for the continuance of any such discretionary power which would have been exercisable had the transferred employee not become entitled to participate in the benefits of a different superannuation fund.
(2) In any case where, immediately prior to the date on which under the Act a transferred employee was first transferred or became entitled to participate in the benefits of a different superannuation fund, he was subject to the provisions of any local Act scheme, then—
(a) if he is transferred to the employment of the Common Council otherwise than from the employment of the county council of London, the local Act scheme of the Common Council, or
(b) in any other case the Acts of 1937 to 1953 and regulations made thereunder,
shall have effect in relation to him for the appropriate period as if they—
(i) required him to make contributions at the like rate as he would have been liable to make and conferred on him rights corresponding with those which he would have enjoyed if he had remained in the employment of the authority from which he was transferred or, as the case may be, had continued to be entitled to participate in the benefits of his former superannuation fund, and
(ii) conferred on any authority to which he is transferred under the Act any discretionary power to pay or to increase pensions, lump sums or gratuities to or in respect of him which was exercisable by the authority from which he was first transferred, or, as the case may be, provided for the continuance of any such discretionary power which would have been exercisable had the transferred employee not become entitled to participate in the benefits of a different superannuation fund,
in lieu of the rights, obligations and powers conferred or imposed by the said local Act scheme or the said Acts and regulations, as the case may be:
Provided that—
(i) nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the application to any transferred employee of any provision of the said Acts and regulations which is expressed to apply to both contributory employees and local Act contributors; and
(ii) in relation to any person mentioned in sub-paragraph (a) of this paragraph, section 29 of the City of London (Various Powers) Act 1931, and in relation to any other person, section 35 of the Act of 1937, shall apply to any question concerning the rights and liabilities of any person under this order; and
(iii) where the local Act scheme to which a transferred employee was subject contained no provisions for the reckoning of non-contributing service similar to the provisions in that behalf of the Acts of 1937 to 1953 and the regulations made thereunder, nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the application of the latter provisions to the transferred employee in relation to any service which was not reckonable for the purposes of the local Act scheme; and
(iv) regulation 12 of the Local Government Superannuation (Benefits) Regulations 1954 shall apply in the case of any person who was subject to the local Act scheme of the metropolitan borough of St. Marylebone.
(3) Paragraphs (1) and (2) of this article shall apply in relation to any transfer under the Act of a transferred employee subsequent to the first such transfer as if such subsequent transfer had been the first.
(4) Where a transferred employee to whom paragraph (2) of this article applies ceases to be employed by an authority to which he was transferred under the Act, or the body by which he was employed when he became entitled to participate in the benefits of a different superannuation fund, and subsequently enters a new employment in circumstances in which he is not a transferred employee and is entitled to reckon for superannuation purposes service in such previous employment, that service shall be reckonable in the like manner, and the employee shall in other respects have the like rights and be subject to the like obligations, as if he had moved to the new employment from the employment which he held immediately before he was first transferred under the Act or became entitled to participate in the benefits of a different superannuation fund, as the case may be.
(5) Any transferred employee who was paying superannuation contributions immediately prior to his transfer at a rate appropriate to a servant shall continue to contribute at the like rate so long as he is employed without a break of twelve months or more by the authority to whose employment he was transferred on duties reasonably comparable to those in which he was engaged immediately prior to his transfer.
(6) In this article the appropriate period during which any provision mentioned in paragraph (1) or (2) of this article is to continue to apply to a transferred employee means the period of application specified in the provision of the local Act or scheme or, if no period is so specified, the period during which the employee continues without a break of twelve months or more in the employment of an authority to which he was transferred under the Act or the body by which he was employed when he became entitled to participate in the benefits of a different superannuation fund.

Payment of contributions where remuneration is reduced
22. (1) Notwithstanding anything in article 21, section 6(5) of the Act of 1937 (which relates to the payment of superannuation contributions on the reduction or discontinuance of remuneration) shall apply to any transferred employee or other employee of a local authority who on or after 1st April 1965 suffers a reduction of remuneration which is attributable to anything done by or under the Act or any instrument (including any agreement made under section 24(7)) made under the Act:
Provided that the said section 6(5) shall so apply only so long as the employee continues without a break of 12 months or more in the employment in which he suffered the reduction of remuneration, whether in the same post or in some other post.
(2) Where under section 6(5) of the Act of 1937 as applied by the last foregoing paragraph an employee pays contributions to a superannuation fund as if his remuneration had not been reduced, he shall be deemed, for the purposes of regulation 3(1) of the Local Government Superannuation (Benefits) Regulations 1954, proviso (b) to section 8(5) of the Act of 1937, or any corresponding provision applicable to him under article 21, to have received the remuneration which he would have received but for the reduction.
(3) In calculating for the purposes of paragraph (1) or (2) of this article whether, or the amount by which, an employee's remuneration has been reduced, no account shall be taken of any increase or decrease in the amount of the employee's remuneration which is attributable to any sum paid or reduction made under article 4 of the Interim Action Order or of any increase in such amount which is attributable to any temporary allowance granted in consequence of the Act and otherwise than in the ordinary course of his employment.

Continuity of employment
23. Subject to the following provisions of this order, any provisions contained in or made under—
(a) the Acts of 1937 to 1953 (including any such provision as modified by article 21),
(b) the Superannuation (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1948,
(c) the National Insurance Act 1959, and
(d) any local Act under which the Common Council maintain a superannuation fund
shall, in relation to any transferred employee to whom such provision applies, being such a transferred employee as is mentioned in sub-paragraph (a), (b), (c) or (d) of paragraph (1) of article 3, have effect as if his employments immediately before and immediately after the date of his tranfer were one continuous employment.

Decision of questions, notifications, etc
24. (1) Article 23 shall not affect the operation of the Local Government Superannuation (Administration) Regulations 1954 in relation to—
(a) any transferred employee who was not a contributory employee or local Act contributor immediately prior to the date of his transfer but who becomes a contributory employee or local Act contributor on that date; or
(b) any transferred employee if there occurs in relation to his employment any such other change as is mentioned in regulation 6(2)(b) of the said Regulations of 1954.
(2) The authority or body by which a transferred employee is first employed after his transfer shall as soon as may be notify him in writing of the effect of article 8(2) unless a notification is required by reason of circumstances mentioned in paragraph (1) of this article.
(3) In the case of any transferred employee who was a contributory employee or local Act contributor immediately prior to the date on which he was transferred or became entitled to participate in the benefits of a different superannuation fund, the authority or body by which he is first employed after that date shall as soon as may be consider and decide whether he is affected by paragraph (1) or (2) of article 21 and, if so, shall inform him of his rights and liabilities under either paragraph; and regulations 7, 11(2), 13(2), 20, 21 and 22 of the said Regulations of 1954 shall apply in relation to any matter so decided.

Preservation of contributory status
25. (1) Every transferred employee who was a contributory employee or local Act contributor immediately prior to the date on which he was transferred or became entitled to participate in the benefits of a different superannuation fund and who does not otherwise on that date become or continue to be a contributory employee or local Act contributor shall, subject to the provisions of article 21:—
(a) if he is transferred to the employment of the Common Council, otherwise than from the employment of the county council of London or Middlesex, become or continue to be a local Act contributor; or
(b) in any other case, become or continue to be a contributory employee.
(2) Any transferred employee who, if the Act had not been passed, would have become a contributory employee or local Act contributor on the completion of any qualifying period of employment and compliance with any other conditions and who does not otherwise become a contributory employee or local Act contributor at any earlier date, shall, on completing the qualifying period of employment without any break, if he is otherwise qualified for that purpose and satisfies any other such conditions, become a contributory employee or, if he transferred to the employment of the Common Council otherwise than from the employment of the county council of London or Middlesex, a local Act contributor.

Discretionary powers
26. Where immediately before a transferred employee was first transferred under the Act it was the prevailing practice of the authority employing him, in relation to employees of that description, to exercise beneficially (that is to say, to secure the making of payments or increased payments) any discretionary power referred to in article 21 or under any provision mentioned in article 23, it shall be the duty of any authority to which he is transferred under the Act, and in whose employment he has continued without a break of twelve months or more, to exercise in relation to him that power (or any corresponding power under statutory provisions relating to pensions for the time being in force) in a way which is no less beneficial than that practice; and section 35 of the Act of 1937 shall apply to any question arising under this article.

Rights of former employees
27. (1) The successor authority in relation to any superannuation fund transferred by this order shall send to any person entitled to a benefit payable out of the fund a notification in writing of the name and address of the authority which is liable under this order to make the payment.
(2) If any person to whom article 42 of the London County Council (Superannuation) Scheme 1958 applied immediately before 1st April 1965 thereafter enters the employment of the Greater London Council, the Common Council or the council of an inner London borough in the circumstances mentioned in paragraph (8) or (9) of that article, he shall be entitled to the like rights as he would have had under those paragraphs if he had re-entered the employment of the London County Council.
(3) If any contributor to the London County Council's superannuation fund who had retired on grounds of ill-health before 1st April 1965 thereafter enters the employment of the Greater London Council, the Common Council or the council of an inner London borough, he shall be entitled to the like rights as he would have enjoyed under article 45 of the London County Council (Superannuation) Scheme 1958 if he had re-entered the employment of the London County Council.
(4) Except as provided in paragraphs (2) and (3) of this article, any person who immediately prior to 1st April 1965 was in receipt of benefits payable out of the superannuation fund of any authority ceasing to exist on that day, shall, in the event of his re-employment by any local authority or other body, enjoy the like rights and be subject to the like obligations as if the Act had not been passed.
(5) Any authority which becomes liable under this order to continue the payment of a pension to any person shall have the like power to make payments to the personal representatives, or to the spouse or other dependant of the person as was exercisable by the authority by which the pension was payable immediately prior to 1st April 1965; and where the power is discretionary, article 26 shall apply in relation to its exercise.
(6) Where the rights and liabilities of a former employee of any authority or of his widow, dependants or legal personal representatives are affected by this order, section 35 of the Act of 1937 shall apply to any question concerning those rights and liabilities.

Local statutory provisions
28. (1) The local statutory provisions mentioned in column (1) of schedule 6 shall apply to the authorities mentioned opposite thereto in column (2) of that schedule with any necessary modifications, including the substitution for references to any council, to any employee or former employee of a council, or to any superannuation fund maintained by a council, of references to the authority so mentioned in column (2), to an employee or former employee of such an authority, or to the superannuation fund maintained by such an authority:
Provided that any such provisions which relate to the calculation of remuneration for superannuation purposes shall not apply in relation to any transferred employee except as provided in article 21.
(2) The local statutory provisions mentioned in schedule 7 to the extent to which they are applied by paragraph (1) of this article shall have effect subject to the provisions of that schedule.
(3) Section 17(2) of the London County Council (General Powers) Act 1932shall apply to any agreement with the Trustees of the Borough Market Southwark having effect under article 18 and to any agreement which the said Trustees may enter into under section 15 of the Local Government Superannuation Act 1953.
(4) Any power to increase pensions conferred by this article on any authority mentioned in column (2) of the Table in article 20 shall be exercised by that authority in a way no less beneficial to persons in receipt of pensions than that in which the power was exercised immediately before 1st April 1965:
Provided that nothing in this paragraph shall impose upon a nationalised transport body, as defined in article 20(2), any liability to make any payments to a local authority under the Pensions (Increase) Acts 1920 to 1962 or the regulations made thereunder.
(5) Subject to article 25, in the case of persons employed by the Greater London Council, the definition of “employee” in section 40 of the Act of 1937 shall not include a person whose employment is of a seasonal nature.
(6) In relation to any person, other than a person transferred under the Act or the Administration of Justice Act 1964, who is entitled to participate in the benefits of the superannuation fund maintained by the Greater London Council or the council of an inner London borough, the definition of remuneration in section 40 of the Act of 1937 shall have effect subject to the following proviso—

“Provided that in relation to a person who is ordinarily employed for the whole of his time in an employment in which he is a contributory employee and is also employed by the council as an instructor in an evening institute, or in any other part-time or casual employment, no account shall be taken of any salary, wages, fees or other payment in respect of that part-time or casual employment.”.

Policy schemes
29. Any agreement or trust deed made for the purposes of any scheme of superannuation by policies of insurance by an authority employing a transferred employee and having effect immediately prior to his transfer shall, so far as it relates to that employee, have effect thereafter as if it had been made with the authority whose employment the transferred employee enters in consequence of the Act; and any policies of insurance which are held for the purposes mentioned in this article for the benefit of any transferred employee by such first mentioned authority shall vest in such second mentioned authority.

Police civilian staff
30. Part II of the Superannuation (Transfers between Metropolitan Police Staffs and Local Government) Rules 1959 shall apply in relation to any contributory employee who, on 1st April 1965, is transferred by article 7(3) of the Staff Order from the employment of the county council of Essex to the employment of the Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis or the Receiver for the Metropolitan Police District, subject to the following modifications, that is to say:—
(1959 II, p. 2041).

Exclusion of Property Order
31. Nothing in the Property Order shall apply in relation to the making of payments to any superannuation fund or to any other matter dealt with in this order.
Given under the official seal of the Minister of Housing and Local Government on 25th March 1965.

SCHEDULE 4 APPORTIONMENT OF SUPERANNUATION FUNDS
Article 13
In this schedule an authority maintaining a superannuation fund which is to be apportioned, or an authority maintaining a fund comprising such a fund, is referred to as “the paying authority” and an authority receiving or retaining an apportioned part of the fund is referred to as “the receiving authority”, and references to “transferred employees” shall be construed as references to transferred employees in respect of whom an apportionment is to be made and, in the case of the superannuation funds of the Middlesex Local Authorities Superannuation Joint Committee or the South East Essex Superannuation Joint Committee, shall include persons in respect of whom liabilities are transferred by article 9(2) or 11(2). Where the paying authority and the receiving authority are the same authority, references to the transfer of assets or the payment of any amount shall be construed as references to the retention of such assets or amount.
1. In his report on the superannuation fund to be apportioned (in this schedule referred to as “the fund”) as at 31st March 1965, the actuary shall certify the fraction of that fund (in this schedule referred to as “the apportionment fraction”) which it is appropriate to transfer to each of the receiving authorities in consequence of the transfer to those authorities of superannuation liabilities in respect of transferred employees.
The apportionment fraction shall be a fraction of which:—
(a) the denominator is an amount representing the total of the liabilities shown in the valuation balance sheet appended to the report, less the value of future contributions (including employers' equivalent contributions) shown in the said balance sheet; and
(b) the numerator is an amount representing the part of the said liabilities determined by the actuary to relate to the transferred employees, less such part of the value of the said future contributions as the actuary estimates would have been received from or in respect of the transferred employees.
The paying authority shall furnish the actuary with such information as is necessary to enable him to calculate the apportionment fraction and shall keep such accounts as will enable the transferable assets of the fund to be distinguished.
Copies of the report containing the certificate referred to in this paragraph shall be sent to the receiving authorities.
2. The transferable assets of the fund shall be:—
(a) any cash, securities, loans or other assets held in the fund at the date of transfer which represent in any form, or have accrued from, any cash, security, loan or other assets held in the fund at 31st March 1965;
(b) any cash, securities, loans or other assets held in the fund at the date of transfer resulting from any payments by way of transfer value or returned contributions received by the receiving authority in respect of any transferred employee and remitted to the paying authority pursuant to article 13(4);
(c) any cash, securities, loans or other assets held in the fund at the date of transfer resulting from sums credited to the fund since 31st March 1965 in respect of the annual charges and liabilities to be made good by authorities or their successors interested in the fund shown in the valuation balance sheet appended to the actuary's report, adjusted in accordance with any scheme made under section 22(6) of the Act of 1937 in consequence of the valuation;
less any sums due from the fund to sundry creditors at 31st March 1965 and expenditure after that date in respect of any asset mentioned in this paragraph.
3. Not later than six months from the date of the submission by the actuary of his valuation and report, or within such longer period as the paying and receiving authorities may agree, the paying authority shall transfer to the receiving authority the apportionment fraction of the transferable assets of the fund and the date on which the transfer is effected is referred to in this schedule as the date of transfer.
The transferable assets of the fund which consist of Stock Exchange securities shall be valued by reference to their market value at the date of transfer, and the remainder of the transferable assets of the fund shall be valued by the actuary as at that date. The apportionment fraction of every transferable asset of the fund, or an equivalent amount in the form of cash or any other transferable asset as so valued, shall be transferred by the paying authority to the receiving authority.
4. The apportionment fraction of a sum certified by the actuary to be equivalent in value to the aggregate of the future payments of annual charges and liabilities referred to in sub-paragraph (c) of paragraph 2 of this schedule shall be paid out of the paying authority's fund to the receiving authority by annual payments of such amount including interest as the actuary shall determine, and over a period determined by the actuary to be the mean residuary period for which such future payments are payable.
5. Not later than the date of transfer the paying authority shall furnish to the receiving authority a statement setting out the transferable assets of the fund described in paragraph 2 of this schedule and showing the apportionment fraction of the assets transferred in accordance with paragraph 3 of this schedule. The statement shall also contain particulars of the sum referred to in paragraph 4 of this schedule and of the annual payments to be made thereunder. Within three months after receiving the statement the receiving authority may, by notice in writing addressed to the paying authority, object to the inclusion of or to the failure to include any matter in the statement or to the amount of any sum or annual payment set out therein as representing the apportionment fraction transferred or to be transferred in any particular case. Any unresolved objection shall be referred to the arbitration of a single arbitrator agreed upon by the paying authority and the receiving authority or, in default of agreement, appointed by the Minister, and such adjustment shall be made in the assets transferred or in the payments to be made under this schedule by the paying authority as is necessary to give effect to the award of the arbitrator.
6. Each receiving authority shall pay to the paying authority an amount representing the apportionment fraction of the expenses incurred by the paying authority in carrying out the apportionment of the fund, including any expenses incurred by that authority, otherwise than from the fund, in relation to the transferable assets between 1st April 1965 and the date of transfer.
