Civil Service (Transferred Officers) Compensation (Amendment) Act, 1947

In short

This law amends the Civil Service (Transferred Officers) Compensation Act, 1929, to clarify and restrict claims for compensation by certain civil servants. It specifies that certain changes in employment conditions and superannuation awards do not qualify for compensation.

What it regulates

  • The operation of Section 14 of the Principal Act regarding changes in employment conditions.
  • Claims for compensation related to awards made under the Superannuation Acts.
  • The impact of specific regulations and orders on compensation claims.
  • The definition of certain terms used in the Act.

Who it concerns

  • "Transferred officers" as defined in the Principal Act.
  • Civil Servants whose conditions of employment were affected by specific regulations and orders.

Key points

  • Changes in employment conditions due to the Order of 1940, bonus Regulations, Regulations of 1947, or increased working hours between May 26, 1941, and October 12, 1946, are not considered detrimental changes for compensation purposes.
  • No compensation claims can be made for superannuation awards affected by the bonus Regulations, adjustments under the Emergency Powers (No. 354) Order, 1945, or the Superannuation Act, 1947.
  • No compensation claims can be made for superannuation awards based on remuneration not less than that provided for by the Regulations of 1947.
  • No compensation claims based on the operation of the Order of 1940 can be made for superannuation awards.
