8 General conditions applicable to contributions under rules 6 and 7
(1) If, under rule 6 or 7, a member elects to pay contributions in respect of all or part of a period of leave without pay, rule 4 applies to the amount of the contributions as if: (a) in that period the member were paid salary in fortnights as if he or she were on full pay and not rendering flexible service; and (b) the member’s salary did not include an allowance unless: (i) the allowance was payable to the member on the day immediately before the start of the period; and (ii) an appropriate authority of the Defence Force has notified CSC that, apart from the member’s absence on leave without pay, the allowance would have been payable to the member for the whole period. (2) A member who has made an election under rule 6 or 7 may revoke the election at any time after the expiration of a period of 3 months after the election was made. (3) A revocation under subrule (2) has effect in relation to the first salary fortnight in relation to which it can be applied in the ordinary course of business.
