a Orders under this section shall be so framed as to secure that no person other than the Boards, the Holding Company and any subsidiary of any Board, or of the Holding Company, is placed in any worse position by reason of the order.

b An order shall not be invalid by reason that in fact it does not have the result of securing that all such persons are not placed in any worse position by reason of the provisions of the order, but if the Minister is satisfied or it is determined as hereinafter mentioned that any such order has failed to secure that result, the Minister shall as soon as may be make the necessary amending order.

c Any dispute arising between the Minister and any person as to whether or not the said result has been secured by any order under this section shall be referred to a referee or board of referees appointed by the Minister of Labour after consultation with the Lord Chancellor and the Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales, or, where the proceedings are to be held in Scotland, after consultation with the Secretary of State, for his or their determination thereof.

3 Different regulations may be made under this section in relation to different classes of persons, and any such regulations may be so framed as to have effect from a date prior to the making thereof, so, however, that so much of any regulations as provides that any provision thereof is to have effect as from a date earlier than the making thereof shall not place any person (other than the body paying compensation) in a worse position than he would have been in if the regulations had been made to have effect only as from the making thereof.

4 Regulations under this section—

a may prescribe the procedure to be followed in making claims for compensation, and the manner in which and the person by whom the question whether any or what compensation is payable is to be determined, and

b may in particular contain provisions enabling appeals from any determination as to whether any or what compensation is payable to be brought, in such cases and subject to such conditions as may be prescribed by the regulations, to a referee or board of referees appointed by the Secretary of State, after consultation with the Lord Chancellor and the Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales, or, where the proceedings are to be held in Scotland, after consultation with the Secretary of State.

5 No regulations shall be made under this section unless a draft thereof has been laid before Parliament and has been approved by a resolution of each House of Parliament.

a in relation to a person who on the vesting date ceases to be an officer or servant of the Commission and becomes an officer or servant of a Board, that Board,

d in the case of any other person, the Board which would have become his employer under section thirty-four of this Act if an agreement had subsisted at the vesting date for the rendering by him to the Commission of personal services of the kind which he was rendering to the Commission when he left the service of the Commission.

9 The London Board, the Docks Board, the British Waterways Board and the Holding Company may arrange to make payments to the Railways Board by way of contributions towards the liability of the Railways Board under this section in respect of officers and servants of the Commission, and if the Railways Board satisfy the Minister that any of the other Boards or the Holding Company have not made an appropriate contribution towards that liability, whether by the payment of money or by finding employment for any such officers or servants or otherwise, the Minister may require that other Board or, as the case may be, the Holding Company to make such payment to the Railways Board as appears to the Minister to be just.

10 Nothing in this section shall be construed as enabling regulations to be made prejudicing the rights of any person under Part VII of the ^M63Transport Act 1947, or any other enactment passed before this Act.

Construction of Agreements, Statutory Provisions and Documents¶

1 On and after the vesting date any agreement to which the Commission were a party immediately before the vesting date, whether in writing or not, and whether or not of such nature that rights and liabilities thereunder could be assigned by the Commission, shall have effect as if—

a the successor Board had been a party to the agreement, and

b for any reference (however worded and whether express or implied) to the Commission there were substituted, as respects anything falling to be done on or after the vesting date, a reference to the successor Board, and

c any reference (however worded and whether express or implied) to any officer or any servant of the Commission were, as respects anything falling to be done on or after the vesting date, a reference to such person as the successor Board may appoint or, in default of appointment, to the officer or servant of the successor Board who corresponds as nearly as may be to the first-mentioned officer or servant, and

d where the agreement relates to property, rights or liabilities which under the principal sections fall to be apportioned or divided or distributed between two or more Boards, as if the agreement constituted two or more separate agreements separately enforceable by and against each of the respective Boards as regards the part of the property, rights and liabilities vesting in that Board and not as regards the other part,

and paragraph (d) of this sub-paragraph shall apply in particular to the covenants, stipulations and conditions of any lease by or to the Commission.

2 Save as otherwise provided by any provision in this Act (whether expressly or by necessary implication), the foregoing sub-paragraph (except paragraph (a)) shall apply in relation to any statutory provision, any provision of any agreement to which the Commission were not a party, and any provision of any other document not being an agreement, as it applies in relation to an agreement to which the Commission were a party, and, in relation to any such statutory or other provision as aforesaid, references in paragraphs (b) and (c) of that sub-paragraph to the Commission and to any officers or servants of the Commission include references made by means of a general reference to a class of persons of which the Commission are one, without the Commission themselves being specifically referred to.

^C1303 On and after the vesting date any statutory provision passed or made, and any agreement or other instrument executed, before the date of transfer under Part II of the ^M76Transport Act 1947, which by virtue of that Act contains a reference to the Commission instead of a reference to some other body shall have effect as if—

a for any reference (however worded and whether express or implied) which before the said date of transfer was a reference to the directors or any director of the body were, as respects anything falling to be done on or after the vesting date, a reference to such person as the successor Board may appoint, and

b subject to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, any reference (however worded and whether express or implied) which before the said date of transfer was a reference to the undertaking of the body were, as respects a period beginning with the vesting date, a reference to so much of the undertaking of the successor Board as corresponds to the undertaking of the first-mentioned body.

4 Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, where by the operation of this Act any right or liability becomes a right or liability of a Board, the Board and all other persons shall, as from the date when the right or liability is transferred, have the same rights, powers and remedies (and in particular the same rights and powers as to the taking or resisting of legal proceedings or the making or resisting of applications to any Authority) for ascertaining, perfecting or enforcing that right or liability as they would have had if it had at all times been a right or liability of the Board, and any legal proceedings or applications to any Authority pending on the said date by or against the Commission, in so far as they relate to any property, right or liability transferred to the Board under or in pursuance of this Act, or to any agreement or enactment to which this Act applies, shall be continued by or against the Board to the exclusion of the Commission.

5 If the effect of any agreement, and in particular any agreement under the Railway Road Transport Acts of 1928 mentioned in paragraph 1 of Part II of the Second Schedule to this Act, which was executed before the passing of this Act and to which any Board is by virtue of this Act a party depends on whether that Board has power to carry on any activity, it shall be assumed for the purposes of the agreement that any activity which requires the consent of the Minister under this Act has been authorised by such a consent.

6 In this paragraph “the successor Board” means—

a so far as the relevant agreement, statutory provision or other document relates to property, rights or liabilities or functions transferred under or in pursuance of this Act to one of the Boards, that Board,

b so far as the agreement, statutory provision or other document relates to property, rights or liabilities or statutory functions transferred under or in pursuance of this Act to two or more of the Boards, those Boards, but taken as a reference to both or all of those bodies, or to either or any of them separately, as the context may require, and

c in any other case, such Board as the Minister may direct,

and in this paragraph references to agreements to which the Commission were a party and to statutory provisions, include in particular references to agreements to which the Commission became a party by virtue of the ^M77Transport Act 1947, and statutory provisions which applied to the Commission by virtue of that Act.

7 In this paragraph references to the Boards include references to the Holding Company.

8 The provisions of this paragraph shall have effect for the interpretation of agreements, statutory provisions and other instruments subject to the context, and shall not apply where the context otherwise requires.

9 In this paragraph references to the Commission include references to any Executive of the Commission.

Third parties affected by vesting provisions¶

1 Without prejudice to the provisions of the last foregoing paragraph, any transaction effected between the Boards in pursuance of paragraph 1 of this Schedule not more than five years after the vesting date shall be binding on all other persons, and notwithstanding that it would, apart from this sub-paragraph, have required the consent or concurrence of any other person.

2 It shall be the duty of the Boards who effect any transaction in pursuance of paragraph 1 of this Schedule to notify any person who has rights or liabilities which thereby become enforceable as to part by or against one Board and as to part by or against another Board, and if such a person applies to the Minister and satisfies him that the division or apportionment operated unfairly against him, the Minister may give such directions to the Boards as appear to him appropriate for varying the division or apportionment.

3 It shall also be the duty of the Boards to notify any person who has rights or liabilities which become enforceable as to part by or against one Board and as to part by or against another Board in consequence of a direction given by the Minister under sub-paragraph (2) of paragraph 1 of this Schedule.

4 If in consequence of the provisions of the principal sections and this Schedule, or of anything done in pursuance of those provisions, the rights or liabilities of any person other than a Board or the Holding Company or any subsidiary of a Board or of the Holding Company which were enforceable against or by the Commission become enforceable as to part against or by one Board and as to part against or by another Board, and the value of any property or interest of that person is thereby diminished, the Boards shall pay to that person such compensation as may be just, and any dispute as to whether and if so how much compensation is so payable, or as to the person to whom it shall be paid, shall be referred to and determined by an arbitrator appointed by the Lord Chancellor or, where the proceedings are to be held in Scotland, by an arbiter appointed by the Lord President of the Court of Session.

5 A conveyance or transfer whereby a Board purport to transfer to some person other than a Board or the Holding Company for consideration any land or any other property which belonged to the Commission, or which is an interest in property which belonged to the Commission, shall be as effective as if all the other Boards had been parties to the conveyance or transfer and had thereby conveyed or transferred all their interest in the property conveyed or transferred.

6 If at any stage of any court proceedings which have been instituted before the vesting date or later, but not more than five years after the vesting date, and which are proceedings to which a Board and a person other than a Board are parties, it appears to the court that the issues in the proceedings depend on any demarcation of boundaries or division or apportionment under the principal sections or this Schedule which the Boards have not yet effected, or raise a question of construction on those provisions which would not arise if all the Boards constituted a single person, the court may if it thinks fit on the application of a party to the proceedings other than a Board hear and determine the proceedings on the footing that the Board or Boards who are parties to the proceedings represent and are answerable for all the Boards, and that the Boards constitute a single person, and any judgment or order given by the court shall bind all the Boards accordingly.

7 It shall be the duty of each Board to keep any other of the Boards informed of any case where that other Board may be prejudiced by sub-paragraph (5) or sub-paragraph (6) of this paragraph, and if a Board claim that they have been so prejudiced and that some other Board ought to indemnify or make a payment to them on that account, and that the other Board have unreasonably failed to meet that claim, they may refer the matter to the Minister for determination by him.

Minister’s power to alter distribution of property and functions¶

1 The Minister shall have power—

a for the purpose of removing any difficulties or uncertainties in the application of sections thirty-one and thirty-two of this Act, or of reconciling the operation of those sections, or

b for the purpose of facilitating the discharge of the Boards’ functions or Canal & River Trust’s functions,

by order to direct that notwithstanding those sections any property, rights or liabilities of the Commission, and any functions of the Commission under any local enactments, shall be transferred to such Board or Boards or, as the case may be, Canal & River Trust as may be specified in the order.

2 An order under this paragraph may adapt or modify any local enactment so far as appears to the Minister expedient for the purpose of regulating the manner in which functions of the Commission thereunder are distributed and may contain such other transitional and supplemental provisions as appear to the Minister expedient, including provisions which might be included in an agreement between the Boards, or between a Board and Canal & River Trust, under paragraph 1 of this Schedule and provisions having retrospective effect.

3 An order under this paragraph shall by virtue of this Act have effect to vest any property, rights or liabilities transferred by the order without further assurance.

4 An order under this paragraph shall not be made more than five years after the vesting date unless it is one which relates, and is expressed to relate, only to a local enactment which authorises the carrying out of works.

5 An order made under this paragraph may be varied or revoked by a subsequent order so made, and unless the order relates, and is expressed to relate, only to a local enactment which authorises the carrying out of works, shall be made by statutory instrument.

6 In the application of sub-paragraph (3) of this paragraph to Scotland, the words “without further assurance” shall be omitted.

Special provisions relating to transferred heritage in Scotland¶

1 This paragraph applies to any heritable property or right in Scotland which is transferred to any of the Boards by or under the principal sections or this Schedule; and in this paragraph “transferred heritage” means any property or right to which this paragraph applies, and “vesting provision”, in relation to any transferred heritage, includes such of the provisions of the principal sections or of this Schedule, and such of the directions given and orders made thereunder and the agreements made in pursuance thereof as effect the transfer.

2 In relation to any transferred heritage the vesting provision shall have effect for the purposes of any enactment relating to the completion of title to land or heritable rights as if it were a general disposition or assignation of the transferred heritage granted by the Commission in favour of the Board in question on the vesting date or, if the vesting provision takes effect on a subsequent date, on that subsequent date.

3 Where any transferred heritage is immediately before the vesting date, or becomes at any time thereafter, the subject of a lease granted by the Commission, or, as the case may be, the Board to whom the heritage is transferred, the lease shall not be challengeable (notwithstanding any rule of law to the contrary effect) on the ground that the Commission, or, as the case may be, the Board, were not at the time of the granting of the lease infeft in the transferred heritage.

4 This paragraph shall apply to any heritable property or right in Scotland transferred to two or more of the Boards jointly or to the Holding Company as it applies to any such property or right transferred to a Board, and references therein to a Board shall be construed accordingly.

Transitory protection for Boards affected by works carried out by another Board¶

1 This paragraph applies in relation to works which a Board are authorised to carry out by a local enactment passed or made before the vesting date, including works begun but not completed by the Commission.

2 It shall be the duty of a Board who at any time begin or continue with works to which this paragraph applies to afford to any other Board such rights and safeguards in relation to the works and, where necessary, in relation to the carrying out of those works, as may be required in order to facilitate the proper discharge of their functions by that other Board; and it shall be the duty of any other Board to afford to the Board beginning or continuing with the works such rights and safeguards as may be required for the proper carrying out and operation of the works.

3 A Board who claim that another Board should in pursuance of their duty under the last foregoing sub-paragraph afford to the claimant Board any rights or safeguards shall give particulars of their claim by notice in writing to the other Board, and if within three months the Boards fail to agree on the claim, the claim shall be referred to an arbitrator appointed by the Boards or, in default of appointment by them, appointed by the Minister.

4 If it appears to a Board who are proposing to begin or continue with works to which this paragraph applies that another Board may wish to consider whether to make a claim under this paragraph regarding the works, they shall not without the consent of that other Board begin or continue with the works—

a until one month after they have served a notice on that other Board of their proposal with sufficient particulars of the works, and any necessary plans and specifications, and

b if within one month of the service of the notice the other Board make a claim under this paragraph regarding the works, until the two Boards have agreed on the claim or the claim has been referred to an arbitrator appointed under sub-paragraph (3) of this paragraph and been finally determined:

Provided that the Minister may authorise a Board without compliance with paragraph (b) of this sub-paragraph to continue works begun by the Commission.

5 Any agreement concluded between any of the Boards under this paragraph, and any award of an arbitrator under this paragraph, may itself provide for the reference of any issue to arbitration.

6 In this paragraph references to affording rights and safeguards to a Board include references to granting to the Board interests in and rights over land, and undertaking to give to the Board appropriate notices.

Part IV Pensions¶

Employees’ rights to continue to participate in pension schemes after transfer¶

1 A person who at any time after the passing of this Act and before the vesting date ceases to be in the employment of the Commission and thereupon becomes an employee of a subsidiary of the Commission or an employee of a Board or of the Holding Company shall not in consequence cease to be eligible to participate in any pension scheme in which he was a participant immediately before he ceased to be in the employment of the Commission.

2 A person who at any time after the passing of this Act and before the vesting date ceases to be in the employment of a subsidiary of the Commission and thereupon becomes an employee of the Commission or of another subsidiary of the Commission, or an employee of a Board or of the Holding Company, shall not in consequence cease to be eligible to participate in any pension scheme in which he was a participant immediately before he ceased to be in the employment of the first-mentioned subsidiary of the Commission.

3 A person who on the vesting date ceases to be in the employment of the Commission and thereupon becomes an employee of a Board or a subsidiary of a Board, or of the Holding Company or of a subsidiary of the Holding Company, shall not in consequence cease to be eligible to participate in any pension scheme in which he was a participant immediately before he ceased to be in the employment of the Commission.

4 A person who on the vesting date ceases to be in the employment of a subsidiary of the Commission and thereupon becomes an employee of a Board or a subsidiary of a Board, or of the Holding Company or of a subsidiary of the Holding Company, shall not in consequence cease to be eligible to participate in any pension scheme in which he was a participant immediately before he ceased to be in the employment of the subsidiary of the Commission.

5 In the application of this paragraph to a pension scheme the benefits under which are or will be receivable as of right, persons who have obtained pension rights under the scheme without having contributed under the scheme shall be regarded as participants in the scheme; and references to being eligible to participate in a pension scheme shall be construed accordingly.

1 The Minister may make orders with respect to the provision of pensions by a subsidiary of the Commission, or by a Board or the Holding Company, in the period before the vesting date, and shall in exercise of his power under this paragraph make such provision as appears to him expedient for ensuring that persons who become employees of the Hotel Company before the vesting date, whether previously in the employment of the Commission or not, are afforded such pension rights as they would have had if the Hotel Company’s undertaking had formed part of the Commission’s undertaking until the vesting date.

2 Subsections (3) to (9) of section seventy-four of this Act shall apply to orders under this paragraph with any necessary modifications.

3 An order under the said section seventy-four may amend or revoke an order under this paragraph.

Provisions to be included in orders about pensions¶

1 The Minister shall in exercise of the powers conferred on him by section seventy-four of this Act provide for the transfer on the vesting date of the rights, liabilities and functions of the Commission relating to pensions or pension schemes, and any securities held by the Commission on trust for a pension scheme, to the Boards and the Holding Company or, in such cases as appear to the Minister appropriate, to a subsidiary of a Board or a subsidiary of the Holding Company, or to trustees or to the persons administering a pension scheme, and, except so far as is provided by an order under the said section seventy-four, Part II of this Act shall not apply to any such rights, liabilities, functions or property.

2 The Minister shall, in exercise of the powers conferred on him by section seventy-four of this Act, make such provision as appears to him expedient—

a with respect to persons who in consequence of the reorganisation effected by this Act leave the employment of the Commission at any time after the passing of this Act—

i so as to enable those who become employees of any of the Boards or the Holding Company, or of a subsidiary of any of the Boards or of the Holding Company, and who suffer any diminution of their emoluments or change in the nature or terms of their employment in consequence of the re-organisation effected by this Act, to avoid any corresponding diminution in, or consequent loss of, any pension, and

ii so as to preserve the rights under any pension scheme of those who do not become employees of any such body; and

b for modifying contributory pension schemes so as to afford to persons who become employees of any such body after the vesting date opportunities for participation similar to those afforded to persons who are in comparable service with the body and who entered the employment of the body on or before the vesting date.

3 Paragraph 12 of this Schedule shall have effect subject to any order under section seventy-four of this Act taking effect at any time after the vesting date.

Existing pensions payable by Commission as of grace¶

1 This paragraph applies to annual and other periodical payments which the Commission have been making in the period before the vesting date, but which the Commission are not by law obliged to make.

2 The Commission shall as soon as practicable after the passing of this Act prepare a scheme for the distribution among the Boards and the Holding Company of responsibility for continuing to make the annual or other periodical payments to which this paragraph applies in accordance with the arrangements under which the Commission were making those payments.

3 A scheme under this paragraph—

a may require the Boards and the Holding Company to give to the persons by whom payments will be receivable in accordance with the scheme information as to the effect of the scheme, and

b may provide for any of those bodies contributing to the expenses incurred by any other of them, and

c may contain such other supplementary, incidental and consequential provisions as appear to the Commission expedient.

4 The Commission shall submit any such scheme to the Minister and, if the Minister is satisfied that responsibility for the payments is distributed among the said bodies in an appropriate manner and that the scheme contains sufficient particulars to enable them to discharge their duties under the scheme, he shall approve the scheme.

5 Notice that the scheme has been so approved shall be published by the Commission in the London and Edinburgh Gazettes.

6 The payments which the Boards and the Holding Company are respectively to make in accordance with a scheme approved under this paragraph shall be recoverable by proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction.

7 An order under section seventy-four of this Act may vary the provisions of a scheme under this paragraph.

1 If it appears to the Minister, upon representations made to him by, or on behalf of, any person, or class of persons, affected, that any pensions for persons employed before, but retiring after, the vesting date, or any other pensions payable after the vesting date (other than by way of continuing periodical payments which the Commission have been making in the period before the vesting date) would be receivable, although not as of right, under arrangements made by or with the Commission before the vesting date and that they ought to be receivable as of right, he shall by order direct the Commission by a scheme under the last foregoing paragraph to distribute among the Boards and the Holding Company responsibility for making payments under the arrangements specified in the order as if those payments were payments which the Commission were making in the period before the vesting date.

2 An order under this paragraph shall be made by statutory instrument which shall be subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament.

Continuation of existing pension regulations, etc.¶

1 Sections ninety-eight to one hundred of the ^M82Transport Act 1947, and section twenty-seven of the ^M83Transport Act 1953 (which relate to pensions), shall cease to have effect on the vesting date, but that shall not affect—

a regulations made under the said section ninety-eight or the said section twenty-seven, or

b any liability in relation to customary obligations arising by virtue of subsection (2) of the said section ninety-nine and transferred under this Part of this Schedule, or

c the participation in any pension scheme of a person who became such a participant before the vesting date by virtue of subsection (3) of the said section ninety-nine, or

d the provisions of subsections (3) and (4) of the said section ninety-nine and the said section one hundred as they apply to service before the vesting date.

2 If at any time after the vesting date the Minister is satisfied, or it is determined under the next following sub-paragraph, that regulations under the said section ninety-eight have failed to secure the result mentioned in subsection (3) of that section (that is to say that certain persons having pension rights are not placed in any worse position by reason of provisions of the regulations), the Minister shall as soon as possible exercise the power conferred on him by section seventy-four of this Act to make the necessary amendments.

^C1323 If—

a any dispute arises between the Minister and any persons as to whether the said result has been secured by any regulations under the said section ninety-eight or

b any question arises as to the existence or extent of any customary obligation arising by virtue of subsection (2) of the said section ninety-nine and transferred under this Part of this Schedule,

the dispute or question shall, in default of agreement, be referred for determination to a referee or board of referees appointed by the Minister of Labour, after consultation with the Lord Chancellor and the Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales or, where the proceedings are to be held in Scotland, after consultation with the Secretary of State; and the Boards shall give effect to any determination under paragraph (b) of this sub-paragraph.

4 The Minister of Labour may, with the consent of the Treasury, pay out of money provided by Parliament—

a to any referee or to the members of any board of referees appointed under the last foregoing sub-paragraph such fees and allowances as he may with the consent of the Treasury determine, and

b to persons giving evidence before any such referees or board such allowances as he may with the consent of the Treasury determine.

5 Nothing in any of sections 1 to 15 of and schedule 1 to the Arbitration (Scotland) Act 2010 or Part I of the Arbitratiuon Act 1996, shall be construed as applying to any proceedings before a referee or board of referees appointed under this paragraph.

6 It is hereby declared that where actual service in the employment of the Commission immediately precedes or follows service which is treated as such by virtue of subsection (4) of section ninety-nine of the ^M84Transport Act 1947, for the purposes of a pension scheme, the two periods of service shall be treated for those purposes as continuous.

7 The Lord Chief Justice may nominate a judicial office holder (as defined in section 109(4) of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005) to exercise his functions under this paragraph.
