Abatement of allowance on appointment of recipient.
|
83.—(1) Where any person, to whom an allowance under this Part of this Act is paid, is appointed to any office or employment by a mental hospital authority or any other local authority or to any office or employment remunerated out of moneys provided by the Oireachtas, the following provisions shall, so long as he holds such office or employment, have effect:—
|
| |
(a) in case the remuneration of such office or employment equals or is greater than that of the office or employment in respect of which the allowance was granted—such person shall not be paid the allowance;
|
| |
(b) in any other case—such person shall be paid no more of the allowance than so much thereof as, together with the remuneration of such office or employment, equals the remuneration of the office in respect of which the allowance was granted.
|
| |
(2) If and so long as an allowance payable by a mental hospital authority and contributed to by another mental hospital authority is, in pursuance of this section, not paid, the contribution shall also not be paid.
|
| |
(3) If and so long as an allowance payable by a mental hospital authority and contributed to by another mental hospital authority is, in pursuance of this section, reduced, the contribution shall be reduced in the same proportion as the allowance is reduced.
