Compensation of employees of undertakers in generating stations.

14.—(1) Whenever an authorised undertaker, a statutory undertaker, or a permitted undertaker, in consequence of obtaining a supply of electricity from the Board, ceases or has, before the passing of this Act, ceased wholly or partly to use a generating station as a generating station, the First Schedule to the Principal Act shall apply and (where such cesser occurred before the passing of this Act) be deemed always to have applied to every person who, at the date of such cesser, was employed by any such undertaker in such generating station.

(2) For the purposes of the application of the First Schedule to the Principal Act to persons to whom that Schedule applies by virtue of this section, the following provisions shall have effect, that is to say:—

(a) the cesser (whether complete or partial) by the undertaker to use the generating station as a generating station shall be deemed to have taken place in pursuance of an order, made under the Principal Act on the date on which such cesser occurred, requiring such undertaker to cease (wholly or partly, as the case may require) to use such generating station as a generating station, and

(b) references in the said Schedule to ceasing to use a generating station as a generating station shall be construed as including ceasing in part only to use a generating station as a generating station.
