(2) An officer or servant of a company shall hold his office or employment on such terms and conditions as the company determines. | ||
(3) There shall be paid by a company to its officers and servants such remuneration and allowances for expenses as the company thinks fit, subject to, in the case of its chief executive (whether that officer is so described or otherwise), the approval of the Minister given with the consent of the Minister for the Public Service. | ||
(4) Every person who, immediately before the vesting day, is an officer or servant of the Board and who is designated by the Board for employment by a company shall, on the vesting day or with effect from such later day as the Board may, as occasion requires, appoint in that behalf, become and be an officer or servant, as the case may be, of that company. | ||
(5) Save in accordance with a collective agreement negotiated with any recognised trade union concerned, every person who, immediately before the vesting day, is an officer or servant of the Board shall not, while in the service of the Board or a company, as the case may be, receive a lesser scale of pay or be brought to less beneficial conditions of service than the scale of pay to which he was entitled and the conditions of service to which he was subject immediately before the vesting day. | ||
(6) Until such time as the scales of pay and conditions of service of such officers or servants are varied by the Board or a company, as the case may be, following consultation and after agreement with recognised trade unions, the scales of pay to which they were entitled and the conditions of service, restrictions, requirements and obligations to which they were subject immediately before the vesting day shall continue to apply to them and may be exercised or imposed by the Board or the chief executive of the Board or by the board or chief executive of the relevant company, as the case may be, while they are in its service. As provided in subsection (5) no such variation shall operate to worsen the scales of pay and conditions of service applicable to such persons immediately before the vesting day, save in accordance with a collective agreement negotiated with any recognised trade union concerned. | ||

Such officers and servants shall resume their employment with the Board on the same conditions of service as applied before the vesting day unless otherwise provided for in a collective agreement negotiated with any recognised trade union concerned. | ||
