And whereas immediately prior to being so engaged with the

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor-General of the
Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the power

Act (No. 2), 1940, and of every other power and authority enabling
him in that behalf, and acting by and with the advice and consent

1. The contributor shall be entitled to continue to be a
   contributor to the Public Service Superannuation Fund during
   and in respect of the period of his engagement with the Association, subject, however, to the provisions of the aforesaid section
   fifteen of the Finance Act (No. 2), 1940, and to the following express
   conditions:—

(a) The contribution of the contributor to the Public Service
Superannuation Fund shall (in accordance with subsection five of the said section fifteen) be at the rate
of five per centum of the salary received by him from
the Association:

(b) In addition to the contribution payable by the contributor,

   in respect of any month than is equivalent, when added to the
   remuneration so received by him in that month, to one-twelfth
