(2) The service of a transferred hospital employee as an employee of the receiving agency is to be regarded for all purposes as having been continuous with the service of the transferred hospital employee, immediately before the relevant staff transfer date, as an employee of the transferring agency. (3) A transferred hospital employee is not entitled to receive any payment or other benefit by reason only of having ceased to be an employee of a transferring agency because of this Part. (4) A certificate purporting to be signed by the chief executive officer of the receiving agency certifying that a person named in the certificate was, with effect from the relevant staff transfer date, employed, by virtue of this section by the receiving agency named in the certificate is admissible in evidence in any proceedings and is conclusive proof of the matters stated in it.
