No. 50.NATIONAL HEALTH INSURANCE. ADDITIONAL BENEFITS REGULATIONS, 1926. REGULATIONS MADE BY THE IRISH INSURANCE COMMISSIONERS WITH THE CONCURRENCE OF THE MINISTER FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND PUBLIC HEALTH, UNDER THE NATIONAL INSURANCE ACTS, 1911 TO 1925. DATED 13TH SEPTEMBER, 1926. The Irish Insurance Commissioners, in exercise of the several powers conferred on them by the National Health Insurance Acts, 1911 to 1925, and of all other powers enabling them on that behalf, do hereby, with the concurrence of the Minister for Local Government and Public Health, make the following regulations:— 1.—
(1)These Regulations may be cited as the National Health Insurance (Additional Benefits) Regulations, 1926.*
(2)In these Regulations unless the context otherwise requires:— "The Principal Act" means Parts I. and III. of the National Insurance Act, 1911 (1 and 2 Geo. 5 C. 55). The "Act of 1918" means the National Health Insurance Act, 1918 (7 and 8 Geo. 5 C. 32).
(3)The Interpretation Act 1889, as modified by or under the Adaptation of Enactments Act 1922 (No. 2 of 1922) applies to the interpretation of these Regulations as it applies to the interpretation of an Act of the Oireachtas. 2.—
(1)Additional Benefits authorised by a Scheme under Section 37 of the Principal Act may be distributed among the following members of a Society or Branch notwithstanding that they were not members of the Society or Branch on the date as at which the Valuation was made, that is to say— (a) Persons who have been members of the Society or Branch continuously since they were last admitted as members of the Society or Branch until the commencement of the benefit year in the fifth calendar year following the year in which they were so admitted, or, in the case of members re-admitted under the proviso to sub-section
(5)of Section 14 of the Act of 1918, following the year of their last previous admission to the Society, the period from the date at which they ceased to be members in accordance with the provisions of that sub-section to the date of re-admission being for this purpose reckoned as a period of membership; * These Regulations supersede the Provisional Regulations entitled the National Health Insurance Additional Benefits Regulations, 1926, which were made and came into force on 21st May, 1926. (b) persons who have been members of the Society or Branch continuously from the date on which the scheme of additional benefits first came into operation, and were on the day immediately preceding that date entitled to participate in the previous scheme of additional benefits of that Society or Branch, or who would have been entitled so to participate if such a scheme had been in operation. In this paragraph " benefit year " has the same meaning as in the Regulations made under the Principal Act relating to arrears of contributions and for the time being in force.
(2)Where the engagements of a Society or Branch have been transferred to another Society or Branch or where two or more Societies or Branches have been amalgamated, a member shall, for the purpose of ascertaining the date on which he will under this Article be entitled to additional benefits under any scheme applicable to him, be treated as if he had become a member of the new Society or Branch on the latest date as on which he was admitted to membership of the Society or Branch whose engagements were transferred or which was one of those amalgamated.
(3)For the purposes of these Regulations a person who became a member of a Society within the time prescribed by paragraph
(1)of Article 7 of the Approved Societies Consolidated Regulations 1918 (S.R. and O. No. 932 of 1918) after the date of his entry into insurance shall be deemed to have become a member of the Society on the date of his entry into insurance.
(4)These Regulations shall come into operation on the 4th day of July, 1926. Given under the Official Seal of the Irish Insurance Commissioners this 13th day of September, in the year one thousand nine hundred and twenty-six. PIERCE KENT.
