  "text": "(1) These Regulations shall apply in the case of a person—\n(a) who is employed as a teacher at a further education establishment;\n(b) who is superannuable in pursuance of regulations from time to time in force under section 7 or 9 of the Superannuation Act 1972 (superannuation of persons employed in local government service etc. and of teachers), or would be so superannuable if he exercised a right of election (however described) which is conferred by such regulations;\n(c) who in the circumstances referred to in sub-paragraph (2) suffers loss of employment—\n(i) on or after attaining the age of 41 years but before attaining that of 50 years, and\n(ii) before 1st September 1985, and\n(d) who, on the occasion of that loss of employment, is entitled to a redundancy payment under Part VI of the Employment Protection (Consolidation) Act 1978.\n(2) The circumstances mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) are that the loss of employment is attributable to such an event as is hereinafter mentioned or a combination of such events, namely—\n(a) the discontinuance of one or more courses of advanced further education at a relevant further education establishment (within the meaning of paragraph (4));\n(b) the restriction of, or a decline in, the number of students admitted to one or more such courses at such an establishment;\n(c) a change in the manner in which one or more such courses are provided at such an establishment.\n(3) The references in paragraph (2) to the discontinuance of a course, to the restriction of the number of students admitted to a course or to a change in the manner in which a course is provided include references to such a discontinuance, restriction or change which has not taken effect but which has either been decided upon or, in the case of a discontinuance or restriction, has been required under regulations from time to time in force under section 27(6) of the Education Act 1980.\n(4) The reference in paragraph (2) to a relevant further education establishment is a reference to the further education establishment at which the teacher was employed immediately before suffering loss of employment except that, where that establishment is one for which a local education authority is responsible, it includes a reference to any other further education establishment for which the same authority is responsible; and, for the purposes hereof, a local education authority (“the authority concerned”) shall, and shall only, be treated as responsible for an establishment if either—\n(a) it is provided by them, or\n(b) it is provided by some other local education authority but the authority concerned contributes to the cost of its maintenance in pursuance of arrangements in that behalf to which those authorities are parties.",
