SUPERANNUATION ACT 1976 - SECT 143

Invalidity pensioner restored to health

  (1)   Where a deferred benefit by way of a pension is payable to a person by reason of CSC being satisfied as to the matters referred to in paragraph   138(2)(a):

  (a)   if the pension is suspended under subsection   74(3)--deferred benefits do not again become applicable in relation to the person because only of the suspension of the pension;

  (aa)   if the person's entitlement to the pension is cancelled under section   74A--deferred benefits again become applicable in relation to the person; and

  (b)   section   75 does not apply in relation to the person but subsection   (2) of this section has effect in relation to him or her.

  (2)   Subject to subsection   (3), if CSC is satisfied that the health of the person has become so restored as to enable him or her to perform duties of a kind that are, in the opinion of CSC, suitable to be performed by him or her (having regard to the duties performed by him or her immediately before he or she ceased to be an eligible employee, the duties performed by him or her in employment (if any) in which he or she was employed after he or she ceased to be such an employee and such other matters (if any) as CSC considers relevant), CSC may cancel the person's entitlement to pension but, upon the cancellation, the deferred benefits again become applicable in respect of the person.

  (3)   CSC shall not, under subsection   (2) of this section, cancel a person's entitlement to pension at a time when pension would have become payable, apart from the operation of paragraph   138(2)(a).
