Regulation 11 Conditions for payment of long-term compensation
Without prejudice to any other requirement of these regulations, the conditions for the payment of long-term compensation to any person are that—
he has suffered loss of employment or loss or diminution of emoluments attributable to a transfer of property order on, or not later than 10 years after, the material date,
he had not, save as is provided in regulation 26, at the date of the loss or diminution attained normal retiring age,
he had been, for a period of not less than 5 years immediately before the material date, continuously engaged (without a break of more than 12 months at any one time) for the whole or part of his time in relevant employment,
he has made a claim for such compensation in accordance with the provisions of Part VII not later than 2 years after the loss or diminution which is the cause of the claim or 2 years after the coming into operation of these regulations whichever is the later,
if the cause of the claim for compensation is loss of employment—
the loss has occurred for some reason other than misconduct or incapacity to perform the duties that, immediately before the loss he was performing or might reasonably have been required to perform, and
he has not, subject to paragraph (2), been offered in writing any relevant employment which is reasonably comparable with the employment which he has lost, and
he is not in receipt of benefit within the meaning of Schedule 2, paragraph 3.
Regulation 7(2) shall apply for the purposes of this regulation in ascertaining whether a person has been offered reasonably comparable employment.
Claims for long term compensation for loss of employment shall in all respects be treated as claims for such compensation for the loss of emoluments occasioned thereby and the provisions of these regulations shall apply to all such claims accordingly.
