29BB—Determination of salary for contributor returning to Public Service after employment with relevant entity

        (1)         This regulation applies to a contributor employed in the Public Service after having occupied a position with a relevant entity if—

            (a)         the contributor was employed by the entity pursuant to an arrangement under which the definition of salary in the Act was modified in its application to, or in relation to, employees to which the arrangement related; and

            (b)         a purpose of the modification was to ensure that the salary received by employees in their employment with the relevant entity was recognised for the purposes of the definition of salary only in respect of the period of the employee's service with the entity.

        (2)         Despite any other regulation (and despite any provision to the contrary in the Act), if the highest level of salary received by a contributor to whom this regulation applies in his or her position with the relevant entity was higher than the salary received by the contributor in his or her employment with the Public Service, the contributor's salary will, for the purposes of determining contributions and benefits, be determined in accordance with the method for determining salary specified under the arrangement.
