Entitlement to extended leave

101 Entitlement to extended leave

(1) Subject to this Division, a member of the NSW Police Force is entitled--
(a) after service for 10 years, to leave for 2 months on full pay or 4 months on half pay, and
(b) after service for more than 10 years, to--
(i) leave as provided by paragraph (a), and
(ii) in addition, an amount of leave proportionate to the member's length of service after 10 years, calculated on the basis of 5 months on full pay, or 10 months on half pay, for 10 years served after service for 10 years.
(2) For the purpose of calculating the entitlement of a person to extended leave under this clause at any time--
(a) service referred to in this clause includes service before the commencement of this Part (as referred to in clause 98 (2)), and
(b) there must be deducted from the amount of extended leave to which, but for this paragraph, that person would be entitled--
(i) any extended leave, or leave in the nature of extended leave, and
(ii) the equivalent, in extended leave, of any benefit instead of extended leave or leave in the nature of extended leave,
taken or received by that person before that time, including any such leave taken, or benefit received, by that person in accordance with any former Act, and
(c) the provisions of Schedule 2 to the Government Sector Employment Regulation 2014 have effect.
(3) Nothing in subclause (2) is to be regarded as authorising, in respect of the same period of leave taken or the same benefit received, a deduction under both subclause (2) (b) and clause 7 of Schedule 2 to the Government Sector Employment Regulation 2014 .
(4) If the services of a member of the NSW Police Force with at least 5 years' service as an adult and less than 10 years' service are terminated (otherwise than by the making of a section 181D order)--
(a) by the Crown, the Governor or the Commissioner for any reason other than the member's serious and intentional misconduct, or
(b) by the member on account of illness, incapacity or domestic or other pressing necessity,
the member is entitled--
(c) for 5 years' service, to 1 month's leave on full pay, and
(d) for service after 5 years, to a proportionate amount of leave on full pay calculated on the basis of 3 months' leave for 15 years' service (that service to include service as an adult and otherwise than as an adult).
(5) For the purposes of subclause (4),
"service as an adult" , in the case of a member of the NSW Police Force employed to do any work for which the remuneration has been fixed by an industrial award or industrial agreement (however described) under any law in force in New South Wales, means the period of service during which the remuneration applicable to the member was at a rate not lower than--
(a) in the case of a police officer--the rate for a constable, or
(b) in any other case--the lowest rate fixed under the award or agreement, for an adult male or adult female in the same trade, classification, calling, group or grade as the member.
(6) For the purposes of subclause (1),
"service" includes--
(a) service under the Teaching Service Act 1980 , and
(b) any period of leave without pay taken before the commencement of the Public Service and Other Statutory Bodies (Extended Leave) Amendment Act 1963 , and
(c) in the case of a member of the NSW Police Force who has completed at least 10 years' service--any period of leave without pay, not exceeding 6 months, taken after that commencement.
(7) In subclause (6) (c), for the purpose of determining whether or not a member of the NSW Police Force has completed at least 10 years' service, the member's period of service is to be taken--
(a) to include any period of leave without pay taken before the commencement of the Public Service and Other Statutory Bodies (Extended Leave) Amendment Act 1963 , and
(b) to exclude any period of leave without pay taken after that commencement.
(8) For the purposes of subclause (4),
"service" does not include any period of leave without pay whether taken before or after the commencement of the Public Service and Other Statutory Bodies (Extended Leave) Amendment Act 1963 .
