7 Consequences of punishment of forfeiture of seniority

For the purposes of subsection 68(2) of the Act, the consequences that flow from the imposition on a member of the punishment of forfeiture of seniority are as follows: (a) the punishment imposed does not affect the seniority of that member otherwise than in relation to the member’s seniority in the rank held by the member on conviction; (b) the seniority forfeited by the member is so much of the member’s seniority in that rank as accrued to the member before the date or year (as the case requires) specified by the service tribunal which imposed the punishment as being the date or year from which the member’s seniority in that rank is to be calculated.
