These Rules further amend the Superannuation (Public Offices) Rules 1967, which make provision for the pensions of persons who have been employed in two or more public offices (as defined in section 39 of the Superannuation Act 1965). The amendments provide that a single aggregated retiring award under Rule 3 of the 1967 Rules may not be made in respect of a period of service in a public office which commences after these Rules come into operation. The amendments also provide that where each of the authorities administering the superannuation schemes applicable to the public offices in which an officer has been employed so agree the cost of the retirement and other benefits payable in respect of his service shall not be apportioned between the schemes, and that where an officer ceases to be employed in a public office and becomes employed in other employment in circumstances where he is allowed to transfer the capital value of his accrued superannuation benefits to the superannuation scheme applicable to that other employment successive transfer values need not be paid under Rule 12 of the 1967 Rules if the authorities administering the superannuation schemes applicable to each public office in which the officer has been employed so agree. A new Rule 12A applies the provisions of Rule 12 of the 1967 Rules (transfer to other employment) to an officer who becomes employed in another compatible public office (as defined in Rule 12) after the date these Rules come into operation.
