§ (I) If the Minister is satisfied, on application made to him within such time and in such manner as may be prescribed by rules under this section by a teacher employed in contributory service—
- (a) that the teacher, when first so employed, was between such ages as may be so prescribed; and
- (b) that before he was first so employed the teacher was engaged in other employment providing experience of value to him as a teacher, the Minister may direct that, subject to the payment by the teacher of additional contributions in accordance with this section, any period of that other employment, not exceeding five years, shall be treated for the purpose of calculating the amount of any allowance or gratuity payable to or in respect of the teacher under the principal Act as if it were a period of contributory service.
§ (2) The additional contributions to be paid by a teacher in respect of whom directions are given under this section shall be of such amount, and shall be payable at such times and in such manner, as may be prescribed by rules under this section; and the amount so prescribed in relation to teachers of any class shall be such as appears to the Minister, according to tables to be prepared from time to time by the Government Actuary, to be sufficient to support the increase attributable to this section in the amount of any allowances or gratuities payable to them under the principal Act.
§ (3) The Minister may, with the consent of the Treasury, make rules for prescribing anything to be prescribed by rules under this 1539 section; and such rules may apply in relation to the additional contributions payable under this section any provisions of the principal Act or of rules made thereunder with respect to contributions payable by teachers under that Act (including provisions with respect to the return of contributions to teachers who do not qualify for allowances or gratuities) subject to such modifications as may be prescribed by the rules.
§ (4) Nothing in this section shall be construed as authorising any period of employment to be treated as a period of contributory service for the purpose of determining whether a teacher is qualified for the grant of an allowance or gratuity under the principal Act.
§ (5) For the purposes of paragraph (b) of subsection (1) of this section the expression "employment" does not include service undertaken by virtue of an enlistment notice or a training notice served under Pant 1 of the National Service Act, 1948, or work or training in pursuance of an order made or
