Local Government (Early Termination of Employment) (Discretionary Compensation) (Amendment) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2004 come into force

Implementation date: 1 December 2004

The Regulations add Arc 21 to the list of employers to which the Local Government (Early Termination of Employment) (Discretionary Compensation) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2003 apply. The 2003 Regulations make provision for discretionary payments to persons employed by certain employers whose employment is terminated by reason of redundancy or in the interests of the efficient exercise of the employer's functions (but not on ill-health grounds), or where a joint appointment comes to an end because one of the holders leaves. The Regulations can be viewed on the OPSI website.
