CONTRACTS OF EMPLOYMENT AND REDUNDANCY PAYMENTS ACT (NORTHERN IRELAND) 1965 - SECT 61

1964 c.18

61.(1) The Minister may, with the consent of the Ministry of Finance, make
reciprocal arrangements with the Minister of Labour of Her Majesty's
Government of the United Kingdom (in this section referred to as "the United
Kingdom Minister") for co-ordinating the provisions of this Act with the
corresponding provisions of the United Kingdom Act, so as to secure that they
operate, to such extent as may be provided by the arrangements, as a single
system.

(2) For the purpose of giving effect to any such arrangements, the Minister
shall have power, in conjunction with the United Kingdom Minister, to make any
necessary financial adjustments between the Northern Ireland Redundancy Fund
and any fund established under the United Kingdom Act.

(3) The Minister may make regulations for giving effect in Northern Ireland to
any such arrangements, and any such regulations may provide that this Act
shall have effect in relation to persons affected by the arrangements subject
to such modifications and adaptations as may be specified in the regulations,
including provision

(a)for securing that acts, omissions and events having any effect for the
purposes of the United Kingdom Act shall have a corresponding effect for the
purposes of this Act (but not so as to confer a right to double payment in
respect of the same act, omission or event); and

(b)for determining, in cases where rights accrue both under this Act and under
the United Kingdom Act, which of those rights shall be available to the person
concerned.

(4) It is hereby declared that the Minister is the appropriate Northern Irish
authority for the purposes of any provision of the United Kingdom Act
corresponding to any of the foregoing provisions of this section.
