50.(1) Where the Ministry is satisfied that, in accordance with any such arrangements as are mentioned in subsection (2), a payment has been, or will be, made in respect of the termination of a person's employment in any capacity under the Government of an overseas territory (in this section referred to as "the relevant Government"), and that [in respect of the whole or part of the period during which that person was in that employment, employers' contributions were paid in respect of him], the Ministry shall pay the appropriate sum out of the Northern Ireland Redundancy Fund to such fund or authority as may be designated in that behalf by the relevant Government. [(1A) The reference in subsection (1) to employers' contributions is (a)as respects any period before [6th April 1975], to employers' contributions within the meaning of the National Insurance Act (Northern Ireland) 1966, and (b)as respects any period beginning on or after that days to secondary Class 1 contributions paid in respect of the person in question by persons who were in relation to him secondary Class 1 contributors by virtue of [section 4(4)(a) of the Social Security (Northern Ireland) Act 1975.]] (2) The arrangements referred to in subsection (1) are any arrangements made by or on behalf of the relevant Government for securing that payments by way of compensation for loss of employment in the capacity in question will be made (a)in circumstances which in the opinion of the Ministry correspond (subject to the appropriate modifications) to those in which a right to a redundancy payment would have accrued if section 11 had applied, and (b)on a scale which in the opinion of the Ministry corresponds (subject to the appropriate modifications) to that on which a redundancy payment would have been payable if that section had applied. (3) For the purposes of subsection (1) the appropriate sum (subject to subsection (4)) is the sum appearing to the Ministry to be equal to the amount of the rebate which would have been payable under Part III if such a right as is mentioned in paragraph (a) of subsection (2) had accrued, and such a redundancy payment as is mentioned in paragraph (b) of subsection (2) had been payable and had been paid. (4) Where it appears to the Ministry that [ the conditions of subsection (1) relating to the payment of employers' contributions were satisfied] in respect of part (but not the whole) of the period of employment in question, the rebate which would have been payable as mentioned in subsection (3) shall be calculated as if the employment had been limited to that part of the period. (5) Any accounts prepared by the Ministry under section 36(2) shall show as a separate item the aggregate amount of sums paid under subsection (1) during the period to which the accounts relate. (6) In this Act "overseas territory" means any territory or country outside the United Kingdom; and any reference to the Government of an overseas territory includes a reference to a Government constituted for two or more overseas territories and to any authority established for the purpose of providing or administering services which are common to, or relate to matters of common interest to, two or more such territories. S.51 amends s.13 of 1964 c.18 (NI)
