PENSIONS (INCREASE) ACT (NORTHERN IRELAND) 1971 - SECT 16

Repeal, and transitional provisions.

16.Subs.(1), with Schedule 3, effects repeals

(2) Where at 31st August 1971 authority to increase any pensions was given by
regulations under any enactment repealed by subsection (1), being an enactment
corresponding to any provision of Part II, then in respect of any period
between that date and the coming into force of regulations under that
provision there may be paid on those pensions the like increase, and the cost
shall be defrayed in the same way, as if this Act had not been passed; and the
first regulations made with respect to any pensions under any provision of
Part II may take effect from 1st September 1971, notwithstanding that that
date occurred before the passing of this Act, (but not so as to reduce any
increase payable by virtue of this subsection in respect of a period before
they come into force).

(3) Where at 31st August 1971 there were in force with respect to any official
pensions (other than pensions to which section 11 or 12(2) applies)
regulations under any enactment repealed by subsection (1), being an enactment
corresponding to section 5(3), then unless or until regulations come into
force under section 5(3) with respect to those pensions, or the Ministry by
order directs that this subsection shall not apply to them, those pensions
shall not be increased in accordance with this Act, but the like increases may
be paid as if this Act had not been passed.

(4) Except as otherwise provided by or under this Act, the repeal by this Act
of the Pensions (Increase) Acts (Northern Ireland) 1920 to 1969 shall not
affect the operation of any provision made otherwise than by or under those
Acts and authorising increases in pensions by reference to increases under
those Acts or any of them.
