Brief
The Transferred Officers' Allowances Act 1948 (Act No. 20 of 1948) is an Australian Act that provides for the payment of allowances to certain transferred officers. The Act aims to ensure that officers who have been transferred from the public service of a State to the public service of the Commonwealth receive a fair and just retirement package.
The Act defines a "transferred officer" as a person who has been transferred from the public service of a State to the public service of the Commonwealth and is entitled to retire or has retired with a pension or retiring allowance.
The Act specifies the amounts of additional and further allowances payable to transferred officers, depending on their pension or retiring allowance. The allowances are paid by the Commonwealth out of the Consolidated Revenue Fund.
The Act also provides for allowances to be paid to the widows of transferred officers, at one-half the rates of the allowances that would be payable to their husbands if they were alive and receiving a pension.
The Act was amended several times, and the latest amendments took effect on November 12, 1955.
