New South Wales Consolidated ActsIn addition to the powers and duties conferred and imposed on STC by this Act,
the administration of such of the provisions of the Civil Service Act 1884 and
of the Public Service Acts as relate to superannuation allowances and
gratuities, and with refunds and interest thereon under those Acts, is hereby
vested in STC.
When a gratuity is granted under any of the said Acts, namely, the Civil
Service Act 1884 and the Public Service Acts to any person and any of the
person’s service in respect of which such gratuity is granted has been taken
as temporary service, if such person considers that any of that temporary
service should have been taken as permanent service for the purposes of the
gratuity, the person may, within a period of six months from the date of
payment of such gratuity, appeal to the Minister administering such Act, who
may thereupon refer that matter for opinion to a Judge of the Supreme Court,
and if so referred such Minister shall decide the point in accordance with
such opinion. Such decision shall be final and conclusive and not subject to
appeal.
