Section 57

On the commencement of this Order, such persons, as determined by the Minister, who were employed by the Government immediately prior to that commencement and were exercising or discharging any of the functions corresponding to those vested in the Authority by this Order shall be transferred to the service of the Authority on terms not less favorable than those they enjoyed immediately prior to that transfer.

Until such time as conditions of service are drawn up by the Authority, the scheme and conditions of service in the Government shall continue to apply to every person transferred to the service of the Authority under subsection (1) as if he were still in the service of the Government.

The conditions to be drawn up by the Authority shall take into account the salaries and conditions of service, including any accrued rights to leave, enjoyed by the persons transferred to the service of the Authority under subsection ( 1) while in the employment of the Government.

Notwithstanding the provisions of the Pensions Act (Chapter 38), no transferred employee shall be entitled to claim any benefits under the Act on the ground that he has been retired from the service of the Government on account of abolition of office or termination in the public interest in consequence of the establishment of the Authority or the transfer of that employee to the Authority.
