Section 6 of the Superannuation (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act, 1948, enables the Minister of Health to specify any period as a period of emergency, and provides for the preservation for at least five years, instead of the normal twelve months only, of the superannuation rights of pensionable employees of local authorities who lose their employment as a result of the reduction of staffs by local authorities during any specified period of emergency.
The Local Government Superannuation (England and Scotland) Regulations, 1948, provide for interchangeability of service with preservation of prospective superannuation rights between pensionable local government employment in England and pensionable local government employment in Scotland, and vice versa, if the new employment is entered within a period of twelve months after the cessation of the former employment.
These regulations are designed to extend that period by bringing the relevant provisions of the Regulations of 1948 in question into line with the statutory provision which has now been made.
