Section 13 provides that continuity of service is preserved even when there are certain breaks in employment. It also provides that certain breaks in service are reckonable in the calculation of a lump sum, except breaks occurring in the three year period prior to the date of termination of employment. These arrangements will come into force when a new IT system becomes fully operational. Section 14 provides for penalties that may be imposed on people who defraud the system. Section 15 provides that the minimum rates of pay laid down in the National Minimum Wage Act 2000, as updated, will be taken into account when calculating a statutory redundancy lump sum.
