S.L. 260.4 Art. 13Abolition or reorganisation of office.

If a correctional services officer retires or is removed from the Department of Correctional Services in consequence of the abolition of his office, or for the purpose of facilitating improvements in the Department of Correctional Services, by which greater efficiency and economy can be effected, he may be granted a pension: Provided, however, that if he has been in the Department of Correctional Services for less than the qualifying period of ten years, he may be granted a pension calculated in accordance with regulation 8 as if there had been no qualifying period: Provided also that the grant of such pension shall be subject to the condition that he shall be liable to be recalled to service in the Department of Correctional Services:

Provided further that if such a correctional services officer is not qualified for other employment in the Department of Correctional Services or if there is no reason, in the opinion of the Prime Minister, to expect that he can be shortly re-employed, a pension may be granted to him free from the above-mentioned condition.
