Superannuation Act 1976

A reference in this Act to the retirement of an eligible employee on the ground of invalidity shall be read as a reference to his or her having been retired, or his or her services having been otherwise terminated, on the ground of physical or mental incapacity to perform his or her duties.

Where a person has, before attaining his or her maximum retiring age, ceased to be an eligible employee otherwise than by reason of death or by reason of his or her having been retired, or his or her services having been otherwise terminated, on the ground of physical or mental incapacity to perform his or her duties, but CSC is satisfied that, at the time he or she ceased to be an eligible employee, he or she was, by reason of physical or mental incapacity, totally and permanently incapacitated within the meaning of Part IVA, CSC may direct that the person shall, for the purposes of this Act, be deemed to have been retired on the ground of invalidity because of that physical or mental incapacity.
