(

)
has obtained the refund of his contributions under any of the pension plans referred to in paragraph 1;
(
4
)
has never before been a member of any of the pension plans referred to in paragraph 1.
This plan does not apply if the person is a member of the Pension Plan of Peace Officers in Correctional Services. It applies, however, to a person to whom this Act has previously applied and to a person who has availed himself of section 38 of the Act respecting the Pension Plan of Peace Officers in Correctional Services (chapter R-9.2) if they hold pensionable employment under the Act respecting the Pension Plan of Management Personnel (chapter R-12.1) or if they hold or again hold pensionable employment under the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (chapter R-10), unless they are pensioners under this plan, the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan, the Pension Plan of Peace Officers in Correctional Services, the Teachers Pension Plan, the Civil Service Superannuation Plan or the Pension Plan of Management Personnel.

DIVISION

PURCHASE OF SERVICE
12
.
A person, except a person who, between 1 July 1965 and 30 June 1973, became a pensioner or became entitled to a deferred annuity under the Teachers Pension Plan or the Civil Service Superannuation Plan, must, to become eligible for benefits under this plan, redeem the years or parts of a year of past service in an employment with a body contemplated in the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan or with a body which, in the opinion of the Commission, would have been contemplated therein had it not ceased to exist. Any pension credit that may have been granted under section 86, 100 or 104 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (
chapter R-10
), section 28.5.6 of the Act respecting the Teachers Pension Plan (
chapter R-11
) or section 99.17.1 of the Act respecting the Civil Service Superannuation Plan (
chapter R-12
) is cancelled and the service that entitled the person to the pension credit is deemed to be credited to him under this division.
In no case, however, may a person redeem the years or parts of a year in respect of a pension, a deferred annuity or a paid-up annuity, within the meaning of section 76 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan, is payable under a pension plan. The same applies to the years and parts of a year in respect of which a pension credit is payable under section 101 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan.
1986, c. 44, s. 12
;
2001, c. 31, s. 220
.
13
.
A person who is a member of this plan, a person who has complied with section 6 and, subject to the exception set forth in section 12, a person referred to in subparagraph 2 of the first paragraph of section 2, must redeem, in accordance with section 12, a number of years and parts of a year of service which cannot be greater than the excess of the number of years and parts of a year prior to 1 July 1973 credited under section 10 or 11, as the case may be, or credited to their account pursuant to subparagraph 2 of the first paragraph of section 2, over 15.
Where a person was a member of a supplemental pension plan while employed by an employer contemplated by the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (
chapter R-10
), the years and parts of a year prior to 1 July 1973 in respect of which he was granted a pension credit under section 101 of the said Act or in respect of which a paid-up annuity certificate was issued must be included in computing the excess over 15 referred to in the first paragraph.
1986, c. 44, s. 13
;
1987, c. 47, s. 168
;
1987, c. 107, s. 155
.
14
.
A person referred to in section 7 shall redeem, in accordance with section 12, his years and parts of a year of service, up to 15.
1986, c. 44, s. 14
.
15
.
To redeem his years and parts of a year of past service, a person must pay an amount determined according to the tariff of premiums appearing in Schedule II as if it were a pension credit equal, for each year of service, to 2% of the annual pensionable salary of the person as of 1 July 1973 or, if he has no pensionable salary on that date, his pensionable salary on the nearest date.
For the purpose of determining the amount referred to in the first paragraph, the pension credit is, for each year of service, reduced by 0.7% of the maximum pensionable earnings, within the meaning of the Act respecting the Québec Pension Plan (
chapter R-9
), for the year of the annual pensionable salary concerned.
1986, c. 44, s. 15
.
16
.
Every person to whom the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers (
chapter P-32.1
) was applicable on 1 July 1978 and who did not avail himself thereof will be required to pay the amount determined under section 15 and established as of 1 July 1978. The amount will be increased by interest, compounded annually, at the rates determined for each period in Schedule VI to the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (
chapter R-10
), for the period between 1 July 1978 and the date of the redemption proposal made by the Commission or, for the purposes of section 5, the date the plan becomes applicable to the person if it is later than the date of the redemption proposal.
In the case of a person laicized after 1 July 1978 or a person referred to in section 7 who became a member of the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan after that date or of the Pension Plan of Management Personnel but, in each case, at a time when the person was entitled to avail himself of the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers or, as the case may be, of this plan, the amount determined under section 15 shall be established as of 1 July of the year of laicization or, as the case may be, of the year in which the person became a member of the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan or of the Pension Plan of Management Personnel. In such cases, the amount is increased by the interest prescribed in the first paragraph, computed from the date on which the amount is established.

;
1992, c. 67, s. 5
;
2001, c. 31, s. 221
.
17
.
The amount determined under section 15 or, as the case may be, under section 16 must be paid in a lump sum if the person is a pensioner and, where the person is not a pensioner, the amount may be paid by instalments over a period equal to the period corresponding to one-half of the service that the person wishes to redeem or, if the instalments, including the interest referred to in the second paragraph, exceed $3,500 per year, over as many instalments of $3,500 per year as are required for full payment of the amount, except the last instalment. To pay that amount, the person may, however, use all or part of his accumulated sick leave. In such a case, his employer shall pay all or part of the required amount according to the terms and conditions determined by the Commission in accordance with section 95 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (chapter R-10).
If the amount is paid by instalments, it shall bear interest at the rate of 6%, compounded annually, computed from the date on which the redemption proposal made by the Commission expires.
No instalment may be paid after the earlier of the following dates:
(
1
)
the date the person ceased to be a person to whom the plan is applicable;
(
2
)
31 December of the year in which the person attains 69 years of age.
However, where the person is entitled to a deferred pension, no instalment may be paid after the date of his retirement.

SPECIAL PROVISION
18
.
A person who is a member of this plan may redeem or, as the case may be, be credited under this plan, with any year or part of a year of service which may be redeemed or credited pursuant to the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (chapter R-10), subject to the conditions prescribed therein. However, where section 115.7 of the said Act applies, the years and parts of a year of service credited under this plan are determined on an actuarially equivalent basis as established on the date on which the person becomes a member of this plan according to the actuarial assumptions and methods determined by a regulation made under paragraph 3 of section 130 of the Act respecting the Pension Plan of Peace Officers in Correctional Services (chapter R-9.2) in respect of the said plan and this plan. The years and parts of a year of service are then credited in accordance with section 115.7 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan and the person may, where applicable, avail himself of section 115.8 of the said Act.
The person is not entitled, however, to avail himself of the right to redeem any year or part of a year of service pursuant to sections 86, 100 and 104 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan.
Section 115.9 of the said Act, adapted as required, applies where the years and parts of a year of service credited under this plan have been transferred to the Pension Plan of Peace Officers in Correctional Services on an actuarially equivalent basis.

19
.
The pension computed in accordance with sections 35 to 37 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (chapter R-10) and, as the case may be, the pension credits acquired under the said Act shall be granted to every person who avails himself of this plan and who
(
1
)
attains normal retirement age, that is, 65 years of age;
(
2
)
has at least 35 years of service;
(
3
)
attains, in the case of a female employee, 60 years of age;

The person must be a member of this plan at the time he retires under any of the criteria listed above except where he continues to hold pensionable employment under the plan after 30 December of the year in which he attains 69 years of age.
A person who is a teacher, within the meaning of the Teachers Pension Plan, and who becomes eligible for a pension within two months after the end of a school year, within the meaning of that plan, is entitled to his pension at the end of that school year.
A person who becomes a Member of the National Assembly before a pension or a deferred pension is granted to him is entitled to such a pension in respect of the years and parts of a year of service that have been credited to him under this plan if these years and parts of a year have not been transferred to another pension plan, if he acquires the right to a pension as a Member and if he repays the contributions that have been refunded to him, where such is the case.

;
1997, c. 50, s. 4
.

.
The amount of the pension of any person to whom this plan applies pursuant to section 2 is increased up to the limit established in section 22 by the addition, in order, of the following amounts:
(
1
)
an amount equal to 1.6% of the average pensionable salary used for the computation of his pension for each year redeemed by that person under Division II of Chapter IV, unless such years have been credited under this plan on an actuarially equivalent basis;
(
2
)
an amount equal to 1.6% of such salary for any other year of teaching, unless such years have been credited under this plan on an actuarially equivalent basis.
A year of teaching is any period of at least ten months, not otherwise redeemed or credited, comprised between 1 July of one year and 30 June of the following year, during which a person has taught, in or outside Canada, even if he was employed on a part-time basis, including a similar period during which he has pursued, after beginning to teach, further educational studies full time.

;
1987, c. 107, s. 157
;
1991, c. 77, s. 3
.
21
.
The years and parts of a year of service that would be redeemed or credited for the purposes of eligibility for and computation of a person’s pension, or both at the same time, under the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (
chapter R-10
) or the Act respecting the Pension Plan of Management Personnel (
chapter R-12.1
) shall be counted under this plan for the purposes set out in those Acts, and section 74 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan or section 111 of the Act respecting the Pension Plan of Management Personnel, as the case may be, applies.
The years and parts of a year giving entitlement to the increase provided by section 20 shall be recognized for the purposes of eligibility for the pension.
1986, c. 44, s. 21
;
2001, c. 31, s. 222
.
22
.
For the purposes of the increase referred to in section 20, in no case may the total amount of benefits payable to a person under the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan, the Pension Plan of Management Personnel, the Teachers Pension Plan, the Civil Service Superannuation Plan or this plan, computed before any reduction, exceed 70% of the average pensionable salary used in computing the pension.
The sums, if any, paid to redeem years or parts of a year in respect of which no amount may be added to the amount of the pension pursuant to the first paragraph shall be reimbursed with interest calculated at the rate prescribed in Schedule VI to the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (chapter R-10) in respect of the period indicated therein from the midpoint of the year in which such sums were paid until the day the reimbursement is made.

;
1991, c. 77, s. 4

.
23
.
The pension granted under subparagraph 5.1 of the first paragraph of section 19 to an employee who redeemed years or parts of a year of service after 31 December 1991 is reduced for its duration by the amount obtained by multiplying the amount of the pension established under subparagraph 2 of the first paragraph of section 35 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (chapter R-10), referred to in section 19, by 0.25% per month, computed for each month between the date on which the pension is granted to the employee and the earlier of the following dates:
(
1
)
the date of her sixtieth birthday;
(
2
)
the date on which her age and her years of service would have totalled 80 if she had continued to participate in the plan.
The pension granted under subparagraph 6 of the first paragraph of section 19, increased in accordance with section 20, and the pension credits, if any, are reduced for their duration by 0.5% per month computed for each month comprised between the date on which the pension is granted to the person and the first date on which the pension would otherwise have been granted to him under subparagraph 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 5.1 of the first paragraph of section 19.

;
1991, c. 77, s. 5
;
1997, c. 50, s. 5
.
24
.
From the month following the pensioner’s sixty-fifth birthday or from the month following the date on which he retires, if that date is after his sixty-fifth birthday, the pension, increased in accordance with section 20, is reduced by the amount obtained by multiplying
(
1
)
0.7%;
(
2
)
the number of years of service credited after 31 December 1965 to which is added the number of years and parts of a year entitling the pensioner to the increase provided by section 20 even where they are prior to 1 January 1966, to the extent only that those years or parts of a year are necessary to attain the maximum of 70% of the average pensionable salary referred to in section 22;
(
3
)
that part of the average pensionable salary which does not exceed the average maximum pensionable earnings, within the meaning of the Act respecting the Québec Pension Plan (chapter R-9), in respect of all the last years of service needed to attain a sum of corresponding contributory periods equal to five or, if the sum is less than five, in respect of all the years.
In computing the average maximum pensionable earnings, each maximum amount of pensionable earnings concerned is computed according to the ratio established for computing each contributory period.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the years prior to 1 January 1966, the maximum pensionable earnings is equal to $5 000.
In no case may the pension, increased in accordance with section 20, be reduced by an amount greater than the maximum pension payable under the Act respecting the Québec Pension Plan for the year in which the person retired.
Notwithstanding the first paragraph, where a person continues to hold pensionable employment after 30 December of the year in which he attains 69 years of age, the reduction provided for in the first paragraph applies from the month following that date as if he had retired.

chapter R-9

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

Benefits become payable to the person entitled thereto from the day that person retires. The person is presumed to retire on the day after the day on which he ceases to participate in the plan. However, where the person continues to hold pensionable employment after 30 December of the year in which he attains 69 years of age, the day after the day on which the employee ceases to hold such an employment is the day on which he retires. The pension referred to in the fourth paragraph of section 19 is payable from the time the person begins to receive the retirement pension acquired as a Member of the National Assembly if that person became a Member before 1 January 1992. However, the increase provided for in section 20 and the pension credits, if any, are payable from the sixty-fifth birthday of the person.

Any person whose pension became payable under the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan, the Teachers Pension Plan or the Civil Service Superannuation Plan before 26 June 1986 and who availed himself of this plan before 1 July 1987 shall be entitled to the increase provided by section 20 only in respect of instalments payable to him after 25 June 1986. Section 25, to the extent that it refers to section 78 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (
chapter R-10
), does not apply with respect to the increase if the pension was payable before 1 January 1986. However, if the person had become entitled to a pension under any of the said pension plans by reason of the fact that he had become entitled to a pension as a Member of the National Assembly, the increase provided by section 20 becomes payable from his sixty-fifth birthday if he is not 65 years of age on 26 June 1986.
Any person who has become or becomes eligible for a deferred annuity or a pension by reason of mental or physical disability under any of the pension plans referred to in the first paragraph or under the Pension Plan of Management Personnel is entitled to the increase provided for in section 20 from his sixty-fifth birthday. However, if that person has become eligible, before 26 June 1986, for a deferred annuity under the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan and meets, taking into account the years and parts of a year giving entitlement to the increase provided by section 20 and the age at which he ceases to participate in that plan, any of the criteria set out in section 19, his benefits become payable from 26 June 1986 if he availed himself of this plan before 1 July 1987. The computation of the benefits shall be established, with regard to the person’s age, as of 26 June 1986.
Any person referred to in section 6 who has complied with section 13 shall be entitled to his pension and to the increase provided by section 20 from his sixty-fifth birthday. However, if that person is 65 years of age on 26 June 1986 or meets, taking into account the years and parts of a year giving entitlement to the increase provided by section 20 and the years credited to him under section 11, any of the criteria set out in section 19, his benefits become payable from 26 June 1986 if he availed himself of this plan before 1 July 1987. Entitlement to the benefits and computation thereof shall be established, having regard to the person’s age, as of 26 June 1986.
Where a person contemplated in this section is laicized between 26 June 1986 and 1 July 1987 and avails himself of this plan before that latter date, the benefits that would normally have become payable from 26 June 1986 shall be payable from his date of laicization.

Any person contemplated in section 29 who avails himself of this plan after 30 June 1987 and any person whose pension became payable under the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan, the Teachers Pension Plan or the Civil Service Superannuation Plan after 25 June 1986 shall be entitled to the increase provided by section 20, and, as the case may be, to his benefits in the cases where the increase or benefits become payable from 26 June 1986 under section 29, from, as the case may be, the latest of the following dates:
(
1
)
the date preceding by not more than 12 months the date of receipt of his application;
(
2
)
the date of laicization;
(

)
the date on which the pension became payable.
Where the person became entitled to a pension under any of the pension plans referred to in the first paragraph by reason of the fact that he had become entitled to a pension as a Member of the National Assembly, the increase provided by section 20 is payable from his sixty-fifth birthday if he is under 65 years of age on the latest date selected under the first paragraph.
The computation of benefits shall be established, having regard to the person’s age, as of the date selected under the first paragraph or, where such is the case, as of the date of his sixty-fifth birthday pursuant to the second paragraph.

For the purposes of sections 29 and 30, any person whose pension became payable under the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan and who, taking into account the years and parts of a year giving entitlement to the increase provided by section 20 and the age at which he ceased to be employed, meets any of the criteria set out in section 19, is entitled to a pension computed in accordance with Division I of this chapter instead of the pension he is presently receiving. The new pension shall be computed as though the said division had been in force on the date on which the pension he is presently receiving became payable to him. However, this paragraph does not apply to such a person who became entitled to his pension by reason of the fact that he had become entitled to a pension as a Member of the National Assembly.
A person shall be entitled to the new pension only in respect of the instalments payable to him after 25 June 1986 or, in the case of a person contemplated in section 30, from the date the increase provided by section 20 becomes payable to him under section 30.

From the day the payment of the pension of a pensioner ceases by reason of death or, as the case may be, from the day of the death of a person who is entitled to a pension, the spouse shall be entitled to receive as pension one-half of the pension, increased in accordance with section 20, that the pensioner was receiving or, as the case may be, would otherwise have been entitled to receive, or which the person would have been entitled to receive, with, in every case, the reduction prescribed in section 24 or, as the case may be, section 26 from the month following the death, even where the pensioner or eligible person dies before attaining 65 years of age. However, in the case of a pension granted under the Act respecting the Teachers Pension Plan (
chapter R-11
) or the Act respecting the Civil Service Superannuation Plan (
chapter R-12
), section 26 applies only in respect of years or parts of a year giving entitlement to the increase provided by section 20 if, at the time of death of the pensioner, the spouse is not entitled to a pension under the Act respecting the Québec Pension Plan (
chapter R-9
).
The years and parts of a year of service for which a pension credit is granted under sections 101, 113 and 158 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (
chapter R-10
) and those for which the increase provided by section 20 of this Act is granted shall be added, for the purposes of eligibility for a pension, to the years of service credited to the person to determine, in the event of death, the spouse’s eligibility for a pension even where the person died before having made all the instalments required to pay the cost of the pension credit or, as the case may be, the cost of redemption of service under Division II of Chapter IV of this Act. However, the pension increase provided by section 20 shall apply to the spouse’s pension only if the spouse pays the balance of the amounts required to pay the cost of redemption of service.

If a person ceases to be a member of this plan before becoming eligible for a pension, and if he has less than two years of service, he is entitled to obtain the refund of his contribution as long as he does not again become a member of the plan and subject to sections 34.12 and 34.13. However, he is not entitled to the refund if section 21 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (chapter R-10), referred to in section 9 of this Act, applies.
Where the person dies before obtaining the refund, his contributions shall be refunded to his spouse or, where he has no spouse, to his successors.

If a person ceases to be a member of this plan before becoming eligible for a pension or deferred annuity, he may, if he has at least two years of service, apply for a deferred annuity or, subject to sections 34.12 and 34.13, the refund of his contributions. However, he may not obtain such a refund if section 21 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (chapter R-10), referred to in section 9 of this Act, applies, or if he again becomes a member of the plan, or after he has reached 65 years of age.
Where the person dies before obtaining the refund of his contributions and before his deferred annuity becomes payable, his contributions shall be refunded to his spouse or, where he has no spouse, to his successors.

The contributions shall, except in case of death, be payable to the person entitled to the refund thereof from the 211

34.6
.
For the purposes of this division, contributions include every amount paid by the person and every contribution from which he was exempt under this plan or under any other pension plan from which his service was transferred to this plan, but excluding contributions deducted in excess for any year subsequent to 1986. Contributions also include any interest accrued on those amounts, where applicable, in accordance with the pension plan in question. However, contributions do not include amounts refunded to the person under any such pension plan following a transfer of service made on the basis of actuarially equivalent benefits, where the total amount of accumulated contributions exceeded the actuarial value of the benefits vested under the other pension plan.
However, any sums paid by a person to a supplemental pension plan established by an included employer within the meaning of the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan shall be reimbursed if the funds have been transferred in accordance with the said plan.
1990, c. 87, s. 7
.
34.7
.
A person who has at least ten years of service and is 45 years of age or over, and who ceases to be a member of this plan before becoming eligible for a pension, is entitled, except if he transfers his years and parts of a year of service to the Pension Plan of Peace Officers in Correctional Services, or if he has availed himself of a transfer agreement in respect of this plan entered into pursuant to section 158 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (chapter R-10), only to one or other of the following options:
(
1
)
a deferred annuity;
(
2
)
an amount representing up to 25 % of the actuarial value of the deferred annuity, and a deferred annuity adjusted to take into account the payment of that amount.
The actuarial value is established according to the actuarial assumptions and methods determined by regulation under paragraph 9 of section 134 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan in respect of section 54 of the said Act.
However, in no case may the amount exceed the amount of the accumulated contributions of the person with interest.
The first paragraph does not apply where section 21 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan, referred to in section 9 of this Act, applies.
Where the person dies before the deferred annuity becomes payable, the contributions, subject to the amount paid pursuant to subparagraph 2 of the first paragraph and pursuant to sections 34.12 and 34.13, shall be refunded to his spouse or, where he has no spouse, to his successors.
1990, c. 87, s. 7
;
1995, c. 46, s. 31
.
34.8
.
The years and parts of a year which give entitlement to the increase provided for in section 20 shall be counted for the purposes of eligibility for the deferred annuity, and section 21 applies to the deferred annuity.
In addition, for the purposes of eligibility for the deferred annuity, every continuous period of service from the first day the person accumulates service after 31 December 1965 must be counted.
Any period between the day on which the person ceased to be a member of Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan, the Pension Plan of Management Personnel or this plan and the day on which such a plan ceased to apply to him, and any period of less than 211 days during which such a plan ceased to apply to him, must also be counted if such periods are prior to his last participation.

;
2001, c. 31, s. 225

34.9
.
Any deferred annuity is cancelled if the person again holds pensionable employment under this plan, and the years of service he accumulates are added to the years of service already credited.
However, if the person had elected to receive an amount and a deferred annuity, the recomputed pension is reduced by that part of the annual value of the original pension that was paid to him. If he is entitled to a deferred annuity at the time he ceases to be a member of this plan, he cannot reapply for an amount representing up to 25 % of the actuarial value of the recomputed pension.
1990, c. 87, s. 7
.
34.10
.
The annual amount of the deferred annuity is computed in the same manner as the pension, and sections 22 and 24 apply.
A person who is entitled to a deferred annuity is deemed to retire on the date of his sixty-fifth birthday. The deferred annuity shall be payable to him from that date and for life, and shall be indexed in accordance with section 25 from 1 January following the date on which he reaches 65 years of age.
1990, c. 87, s. 7
.
34.11

Contributions are refunded with interest.
However, contributions in respect of service which is credited to the person and which gives entitlement to the application of section 99 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (chapter R-10), referred to in section 34.17 of this Act, are reimbursed without interest.
1990, c. 87, s. 7
.
34.12
.
When contributions are refunded, if amounts have been paid as pension benefits under this plan or a pension plan from which service has not been transferred to this plan on the basis of actuarially equivalent benefits, the total amount of the contributions, excluding amounts paid by the person in respect of which a pension credit is granted and any interest accrued on the contributions up to the date on which a pension became payable,is reduced by any amounts paid as pension benefits from the date the pension ceased to be paid. The balance of the contributions and any accrued interest shall bear interest from that date, at the rate in force on the date of reimbursement, for every period during which no amount was paid as pension benefits.
However, if a pension is payable to the person, spouse or child in accordance with section 99 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (chapter R-10) or section 140 of the Act respecting the Pension Plan of Management Personnel (chapter R-12.1), referred to in section 34.17 of this Act, contributions refunded under sections 34.1 to 34.3 do not include contributions in respect of service giving entitlement to the application of the said section 99 or the said section 140. In that case, the first paragraph of this section applies, at the time the pension becomes payable, in respect of other contributions, but without taking into account the amounts paid as pension benefits in accordance with the said section 99 or the said section 140. However, where the employee is entitled only to a deferred annuity under this plan, or where he has applied for a deferred annuity under section 34.3, the amounts paid as pension benefits in accordance with the said section 99 or the said section 140 are deducted only from the amount of contributions in respect of service giving entitlement to the application of the said section 99 or the said section 140, if that pension is more advantageous than the benefits provided for under this plan.

If, at the death of the beneficiary of a pension credit, the amount he had to pay to acquire the pension credit, with accrued interest until the date on which the pension credit became payable, exceeds the total amounts which have been paid to him in respect of such pension credit, the excess is paid in a single payment to his spouse or, if he has no spouse, to his successors.
If benefits related to the pension credit ceased to be paid to a person who holds or again holds pensionable employment under this plan, the amount he was required to pay to acquire the pension credit, with accrued interest until the date on which the pension credit became payable, is reduced by the amounts paid in respect of such pension credit from the date on which payment thereof had ceased.
The balance of the amount he was required to pay bears interest at the rate in force on the date of reimbursement for every period in respect of which no amount was paid as pension credit in a year or, as the case may be, during the period contemplated in section 69 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (chapter R-10) pursuant to section 36 of this Act.

34.15

The person, his spouse or, where he has no spouse, his successors, are entitled to only a percentage of the interest payable on contributions within the meaning of section 34.6. This percentage is dependent on the length of the period comprised between the date on which this plan, the Pension Plan of Management Personnel, or the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan, as the case may be, became applicable to the person and the date the refund is made. The percentage is established as follows:
(
1
)
0% for a period of less than one year;
(
2
)
60% for a period of one year or more, but less than two years;
(
3

85% for a period of two years or more, but less than five years;
(
4

90% for a period of five years or more.
If the application for reimbursement covers interrupted periods of service, the percentage of interest payable on contributions is dependent on the length of the period comprised between the first date on which this plan, the Pension Plan of Management Personnel or the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan, as the case may be, became applicable to the person and the date the refund is made.
However, the first and second paragraphs do not apply in computing interest accrued under this plan for the purposes of section 71 of the Act respecting the Pension Plan of Peace Officers in Correctional Services (

TRANSITIONAL PROVISIONS

Chapter III, Division III of Chapter IV and Chapter V apply to a person who has already availed himself of the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers (
chapter P-32.1
) and who is an employee within the meaning of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (
chapter R-10
). Any pension credit to which the person has become entitled under sections 86, 100 and 104 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan is cancelled.
However, if the person referred to in the first paragraph died before 26 June 1986 and was 65 years of age or older at the time of his death, or if his age added to his years of service totalled 90 or more, sections 20, 24, 25 and 32 apply, in respect of the years that have entitled him to the pension credit under Division III of the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers, to the spouse’s pension or, as the case may be, to the guaranteed benefit, according to the election made by him under section 18 of the said Act. In that case, sections 20, 24, 25 and 32 shall apply as though they had been in force on the date on which the spouse’s pension or, as the case may be, the guaranteed benefit became payable. The maximum amount provided by section 22 shall be computed as of the same date with respect to the benefits the person would have been entitled to receive.
1986, c. 44, s. 42
.
43
.
Division I of Chapter V, except sections 19 and 23, and sections 31 to 36, apply to every person who has become entitled to a deferred annuity under the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan, the Teachers Pension Plan or the Civil Service Superannuation Plan before 26 June 1986, which has not become payable before that date, and to every person who, on 25 June 1986, is receiving a pension by reason of mental or physical disability and who has already availed himself of the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers (
chapter P-32.1
). In such cases, the increase provided by section 20 becomes payable from the person’s sixty-fifth birthday.
However, if a person referred to in the first paragraph has become entitled to a deferred annuity under the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan and if he meets, taking into account the years and parts of a year giving entitlement to the increase provided for in section 20 and taking into account his age when he ceased to participate in this plan, one of the criteria set out in section 19, Chapter V, except sections 28 to 30, applies and his benefits become payable from 26 June 1986. The amount of his benefits shall be established, with regard to his age, as of 26 June 1986.

.
A person who is receiving a pension under the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan, the Teachers Pension Plan or the Civil Service Superannuation Plan and who has already availed himself of the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers (
chapter P-32.1
) is entitled to receive, instead of the benefits computed under the said Act and instead of the pension credits to which he is entitled under the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (
chapter R-10
), except pension credits to which he is entitled under sections 101, 113 and 158 of the said Act, the increase provided by section 20 of this Act. Sections 22, 24 to 26, 31 to 33 and 34.12 to 34.16 apply to that person. In that case, the increase provided by section 20 shall be computed as though the said section had been in force on the date on which the benefits computed under the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers became payable, but not later than 25 June 1986.
However, if the person referred to in the first paragraph is granted a pension credit pursuant to section 101, 113 or 158 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan, the pension credit shall continue to be paid, but section 89 and the first paragraph of section 94 of the said Act do not apply.
If the person referred to in the first paragraph died before 26 June 1986 and was 65 years of age or older at the time of his death or, where he was receiving a pension under the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan, if his age added to his years of service totalled 90 or more, sections 20, 24 to 26 and 32 apply, in respect of the years that have entitled him to the pension credit under Division III of the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers, to the spouse’s pension or, as the case may be, to the guaranteed benefit, according to the election made by the person under section 18 of the said Act. In that case, sections 20, 24 to 26 and 32 shall apply as though they had been in force on the date on which the pension credit under Division III of the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers became payable to that person. The maximum amount provided by section 22 shall be computed as of the same date with respect to the benefits the person would have received.

For the purposes of section 44, a person who is receiving a pension under the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan and who, taking into account the years and parts of a year giving entitlement to the increase provided by section 20 and the age at which he ceased to be employed, meets any of the criteria set out in section 19, is entitled to a pension computed in accordance with Division I of Chapter V instead of the pension he is presently receiving. The new pension shall be computed as though the said division had been in force on the date on which the pension he is receiving became payable to him.
The first paragraph applies in establishing the amount of the spouse’s pension referred to in sections 42 and 44 if it is paid under the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan.
1987, c. 66, s. 4

.
A person whose pension under the Teachers Pension Plan or the Civil Service Superannuation Plan became payable before 26 June 1986 or a person who ceased to participate in that plan before that date but after he becomes eligible for a deferred annuity is or will be entitled to receive, if section 24 of the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers (
chapter P-32.1
) was applicable, instead of the amount computed under the said section 24, the amount computed in accordance with sections 39 and 41 as though they had been in force on the date on which the amount established under the said section 24 became or becomes payable.
If a person referred to in the first paragraph died before 26 June 1986 and was then receiving the amount computed in accordance with section 24 of the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers, the first paragraph applies to the spouse’s pension according to the election made by the person under subparagraph
b
or
c
of the first paragraph of section 18 of the said Act.

A person who attained 65 years of age before 26 June 1986 and who transferred his years or parts of a year of service credited under the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan, the Teachers Pension Plan or the Civil Service Superannuation Plan to the pension plan of a body with which an agreement has been entered into under section 158 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (
chapter R-10
) is entitled to receive, if section 12 of the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers (
chapter P-32.1
) was applicable to him, instead of the pension credit under the said section 12, the amount computed in accordance with sections 40 and 41 of this Act as though they had been in force on the person’s sixty-fifth birthday.
If the person referred to in the first paragraph died before 26 June 1986 and was 65 years of age or older, the first paragraph applies to the amount payable to the spouse or, as the case may be, to the guaranteed benefit according to the election made by the person under section 18 of the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers.
1986, c. 44, s. 46
.
47
.
For the purposes of computations under the second paragraph of section 42 and sections 44 to 46, the indexing provided for in section 25 shall be determined by indexing the initial amount according to the rate of indexation determined for each period under the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan from the date on which the amount would have become payable.
In that case, the reduction prescribed in section 24 applies, if the payable pension is guaranteed under subparagraph
a
of the first paragraph of section 18 of the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers (
chapter P-32.1
), from the month immediately following the pensioner’s sixty-fifth birthday, even if he died before that age.
1986, c. 44, s. 47
.
48
.
The second paragraph of section 42 and sections 44 to 46 apply only if, on 26 June 1986 or, as regards section 45, on the date on which the amount becomes payable, the amount computed under those sections is greater than the amount that was payable on 25 June 1986 or, as the case may be, on the date on which it becomes payable under the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers (
chapter P-32.1
). However, for the purposes of section 44.1, sections 42 and 44 apply only if the amount so computed increased by the amount of the new pension established under section 44.1 is greater than the amounts that were payable on 25 June 1986.
1986, c. 44, s. 48
;
1987, c. 66, s. 5
.
49
.
If the amount computed under the second paragraph of section 42 and under sections 44 and 46 increased, where such is the case, by the amount of the new pension established under section 44.1 is more advantageous within the meaning of section 48, the amount and the new pension are owing only in respect of instalments payable after 25 June 1986.
If the amount computed under section 45 is more advantageous, within the meaning of section 48, the amount is owing only from 26 June 1986 or, if it was not payable before that date, from the date it becomes payable. However, any amount owing from 26 June 1986 shall be payable only from the annual payment of June 1987.
Section 35 applies to benefits payable to any person or beneficiary contemplated in this chapter.

1987, c. 66, s. 6

The persons contemplated in the first paragraph of each of sections 44, 45 and 46 who, on 25 June 1986, were receiving benefits under the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers (
chapter P-32.1
) in accordance with the election they had made under section 18 of the said Act may, notwithstanding section 48, elect to receive the amount computed under those sections or the benefits they were receiving on 25 June 1986.
If a person fails to indicate his election to the Commission before 1 January 1988, section 48 applies.
Where a person elects to receive the amount computed under section 44, 45 or 46, the election he had made under section 18 of the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers is cancelled and section 32 of this Act applies to that amount.

The provisions relating to a pensioner’s return to work under the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan, the Teachers Pension Plan or the Civil Service Superannuation Plan apply, adapted as required, to a person referred to in section 44 or, as the case may be, in section 45. Where that person participates or, as the case may be, again participates in the pension plan, he shall be, notwithstanding the second paragraph of section 2, a person to whom this plan is applicable, and sections 8, 9, 18, 34.1 to 34.17, 36, 54 and 55 apply.
Chapter III, Divisions I and III of Chapter IV and Chapter V apply to a person contemplated in this chapter who has become entitled to a deferred annuity under any of the pension plans referred to in the first paragraph who holds an employment contemplated in the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (chapter R-10) or the Act respecting the Pension Plan of Management Personnel (chapter R-12.1) and whose deferred annuity is not yet payable.

The Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers (chapter P-32.1) ceases to have effect from 26 June 1986 except sections 17 and 19 to 21, which continue to apply in all cases where the amount payable under the said Act is more advantageous within the meaning of section 48 of this Act and in all cases where the person has elected to receive, under section 50 of this Act, the benefits he was receiving on 25 June 1986. In such cases, if the person made an election under section 18 of the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers, sections 20 and 21 of the said Act continue to apply in accordance with the method elected under the said section 18. In cases where the person who made an election under the said section 18 died before 26 June 1986, the amount payable to the spouse or, where such is the case, to the beneficiary which is the most advantageous amount within the meaning of section 48 of this Act shall continue to be paid according to the method elected under section 18 of the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a person who has already availed himself of the said Act may apply for the redemption of other years and parts of years of service that could have been redeemed under the said Act, except where those years and parts of years have been the subject, before 26 June 1986, of a decision of the Commission or, depending on the date, of a decision of the Comité de retraite or any of its subcommittees, following an application for reexamination. That person must redeem such years and parts of a year in accordance with the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers as though he had redeemed them at the time he availed himself of the said Act.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
58
.
All sums paid or refunded under this Act are inalienable and unseizable.
All benefits or refunds payable with respect to a person contemplated in this Act, pursuant to the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (
chapter R-10
), the Act respecting the Teachers Pension Plan (
chapter R-11
), the Act respecting the Civil Service Superannuation Plan (
chapter R-12
), the Act respecting the Pension Plan of Management Personnel (
chapter R-12.1
) and the Act respecting pension coverage for certain teachers (
chapter P-32.1
), if, in the latter case, the benefits are more advantageous within the meaning of section 48, shall become benefits or refunds payable under the retirement plan established under this Act.
1986, c. 44, s. 58
;
2001, c. 31, s. 234
.
59
.
No person may claim a benefit or advantage under this Act unless he has applied therefor to the Commission, except in cases where section 48 applies.
Even in the absence of an application for payment, any benefit payable under this Act shall be paid on or before 31 December of the year in which the person attains 69 years of age or, where he continues to hold pensionable employment under the plan on that date, from the date on which he retires.
Every application relating to the application of this Act received by the Commission between 20 November 1985 and 26 June 1986 is deemed to have been received on the latter date.
1986, c. 44, s. 59
;
1997, c. 50, s. 10
.
59.1
.
Where an application for redemption of years or parts of a year is made to the Commission under this plan, the Commission shall send the person a redemption proposal valid for a period of 60 days from the date it is made.
The application for redemption is deemed never to have been made if the Commission does not receive from the person before the 60-day period expires a notice to the effect that he accepts the proposal.
In addition, the application is deemed never to have been made if the lump sum payment of the cost of redemption is not made before the 60-day period expires, where such a payment is exigible owing to the choice made by the person or by operation of law. Where payment is exigible by instalments and the person fails to make a payment, the application for redemption is deemed never to have been made in respect of service for which the payments have not been made if the person does not make the payment which has become overdue within 30 days after the date of a notice from the Commission to that effect. In that case, the most recent service is credited or counted first. However, in the case of sections 12 to 14 and section 52, the application for redemption is deemed never to have been made in respect of all the service, and the amounts paid by the person shall be refunded with the interest contemplated in section 34.14, computed in accordance with sections 34.15 and 34.16.
No interest is computed for the period during which the redemption proposal provided for in the first paragraph is valid. Where the Commission refuses the redemption of years or parts of years and its decision is quashed following a review or arbitration based on the data contained in the record at the time of the refusal, no interest is computed in respect of such years or parts of years between the date of the refusal and the date on which the redemption proposal expires.

;

1994, c. 20, s. 5

59.1.1
.
Notwithstanding section 59.1, an employee who makes an application for reexamination in the period during which the redemption proposal is valid is not bound to accept it during that period, or to make payments, until a final decision has been made on his application. After the decision of the Comité de retraite or the arbitrator, as the case may be, has been mailed, the Commission shall send a notice to the employee which, as of the date of the redemption proposal, repeats or modifies that proposal, and section 59.1 applies.
Any unpaid amount in respect of the redemption proposal bears interest, compounded annually and payable according to the same terms and conditions as the redemption, from the date of that proposal until the date of the Commission’s notice. The rate is that provided for in Schedule VI to the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (chapter R-10) and in force on the date the application for redemption is received, unless interest is otherwise payable for that period by operation of law.
1993, c. 74, s. 6
.
59.2
.
No benefit resulting from the redemption under this plan of years or parts of years prior to 1 January 1990 may exceed the defined benefit limit applicable in respect of such years or parts of years under the Income Tax Act (Revised Statutes of Canada, 1985, chapter 1, 5th Supplement).
For the purposes of the first paragraph, the limit applicable to the pensionable salary for the purpose of establishing the cost of redemption, the limit applicable to the service that may be credited, and the rules and procedures for computing that part of the pension which relates to the years or parts of years redeemed, may be established by regulation.
1992, c. 67, s. 12
.
59.3
.
The periods of absence of an employee occurring after 31 December 1991 which may be credited under this plan, for each type of absence and in total, are determined by regulation.
1992, c. 67, s. 12
.
60
.
Sections 151 and 152 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (
chapter R-10
) apply to any benefit payable under this Act, except that in respect of any application received before 1 January 1987
(

A person who ceases to be a person to whom this plan is applicable for any period during which he is not in service in pensionable employment and who ceases to participate before 1 January 1989 is, notwithstanding section 4.1, deemed to have ceased to participate on the day he ceased to be a person to whom this plan is applicable.
