OFCOM may pay to the chairman and other non-executive members of OFCOM such remuneration and allowances as the Secretary of State may determine.

(2)

OFCOM may pay, or make provision for paying, to or in respect of the chairman and other non-executive members of OFCOM, such sums by way of pensions, allowances or gratuities as the Secretary of State may determine.

(3)

Where—

(a)

a person ceases, otherwise than on the expiry of his term of office, to be the chairman or to be a non-executive member other than the chairman, and

(b)

it appears to the Secretary of State that there are special circumstances which make it right for him to receive compensation,

OFCOM may make a payment to him of such amount as the Secretary of State may determine.

(4)

If any non-executive member of OFCOM—

is a participant in any pension scheme applicable to his membership of OFCOM, and

(b)

on ceasing to be a non-executive member of OFCOM, becomes an employee of OFCOM or both such an employee and an executive member,

he may, if the Secretary of State so determines, be treated for the purposes of the pension scheme as if his service (after ceasing to be a non-executive member of OFCOM) as an employee or executive member of OFCOM were service as a non-executive member of OFCOM.
