Clause 29

Despite section 3(a) and (c), section 14(2) and (3) to (7A) of the Employment Act as in force immediately before the date of commencement of section 3(a) and (c) continues to apply in any case where, before that date, a relevant employee (within the meaning given by section 14(2A) of that Act as in force immediately before that date) makes representations in writing to the Minister to be reinstated in the employee’s former employment.

Section 3(b) applies to an employee regardless whether the employee commenced employment before, on or after the date of commencement of section 3(b).

Despite section 10, section 84(2) to (7) of the Employment Act as in force immediately before the date of commencement of section 10 continues to apply in any case where any question, as to whether a notice of dismissal (given to a female employee in the circumstances mentioned in section 84(1) of that Act) was or was not given for sufficient cause, is referred before that date to the Minister under section 84(2) of that Act as in force immediately before that date.

For a period of 2 years after the date of commencement of any provision of this Act, the Minister may, by regulations, prescribe such additional provisions of a saving or transitional nature consequent on the enactment of that provision as the Minister may consider necessary or expedient.
