104. (Repealed).

104. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of any general law, special Act, regulation, by-law or order, no member of the council of a local corporation may receive from the latter, a body that is its mandatary and a supramunicipal body, as remuneration and allowance for expenses for the office of mayor or councillor and for an office in that body, a total annual sum greater than the sum the Government may fix by order.
The Government may define categories of local corporations, their mandatary bodies, supramunicipal bodies and offices and fix different maximum sums according to those categories.
Every Government order must be published in the Gazette officielle du Québec, and comes into force on 1 January preceding or following its publication, as provided therein.
If the total annual sum that a member of the council would receive from the local corporation, a mandatary body of the latter and a supramunicipal body, if the Government order did not apply, is greater than the maximum fixed in the order, each component of that total sum is proportionately decreased to render the total equal to that maximum. In order to compute the total annual sum that a member of the council would receive, the decrease made in accordance with the third paragraph of article 103 is, where applicable, taken into account.
For the purposes of this section, the expressions “mandatary body of the local corporation” and “supramunicipal body” have the meaning given to them by article 103 and article 19 respectively.
