The Local Government (Discretionary Payments) (Amendment No. 2) Regulations 1999
These Regulations amend the Local Government (Discretionary Payments) Regulations 1996 (“the 1996 Regulations”). Regulation 1 sets out the effective dates of the changes. Section 24(3)(c) of the Superannuation Act 1972 provides that regulations made under that section may be framed so as to have effect from a date earlier than the making of the regulations. Regulation 4 provides that the retrospective effect of the amendments cannot operate to anyone’s detriment.
