The Health and Medicines Act 1988 (Superannuation) (Savings for Retired Practitioners) (Scotland) Regulations 1989
These Regulations make savings in connection with the coming into force on 1st April 1990 of section 9 of the Health and Medicines Act 1988 ( “the Act”). That section revokes regulation 75 of the National Health Service (Superannuation) (Scotland) Regulations 1980 under which further employment as a medical or dental practitioner within the National Health Service, between the ages of 65 and 70 years, is disregarded for the purpose of determining whether there should be a reduction in a pension payable under those Regulations. Regulation 2 of these Regulations, however, enables those practitioners who, in the month preceding the coming into force of section 9 of the Act, were taking advantage of regulation 75 to continue to do so as if that provision had not been revoked.
