DIVISION III
REDEMPTION OF A YEAR OF SERVICE
(s. 196, 1st par., subpar. 5.1)
4. For the purposes of the second paragraph of sections 39, 146, 152.1, 152.4, the third paragraph of section 152.6 and the second paragraph of section 152.8.1 of the Act, the amount required of the employee to pay the cost of redemption is established in accordance with the tariff in Schedule I.
Despite the first paragraph, the amount required from the person to pay the cost of the redemption referred to in section 152.8.1 of the Act for a year or part of a year of service completed in the 3 years prior to the date of receipt of the application for redemption is established on the basis of the percentage necessary for the amount to equal the sum of the contributions that would have been withheld if the person concerned had benefitted from the conditions of employment that should have applied during that period.
T.B. 202420, s. 4; T.B. 209327, s. 2; T.B. 210259, s. 1; T.B. 216000, s. 1; T.B. 219771, s. 2.
5. In the case where the employee is not receiving a salary on the date Retraite Québec receives the application for redemption referred to in the second paragraph of section 39 of the Act, the tariff applies to the annual pensionable salary that would have been paid to the employee on that date under the conditions of employment that would have applied if the employee had continued to hold, up to that date, the employment held on the last day of service credited.
If that employment no longer exists with the employer, the tariff applies to the annual pensionable salary the employee was receiving on the last day of service credited, increased by the percentage increase of the salary scale provided for in the conditions of employment applicable to class 4 public service management personnel positions between that last day and the day the application for redemption is received at Retraite Québec.
T.B. 202420, s. 5.
6. Section 5 applies, with the necessary modifications, to establish the pensionable salary of the employee to whom any of the situations referred to in the third paragraph of section 146, section 152.1, section 152.4 and the fourth paragraph of section 152.6 of the Act applies.
T.B. 202420, s. 6; T.B. 209327, s. 3; T.B. 210259, s. 2; T.B. 216000, s. 2.
6.0.0.1. For the purposes of the second paragraph of section 152.8.1 of the Act, the pensionable salary of a person who is not participating in the plan on the date Retraite Québec receives the application for redemption is the annual pensionable salary that would have been paid on that date if the person had benefitted from the conditions of employment that should have applied during that period or, if that date is one on which the person was an employee entitled to salary insurance benefits or an employee on maternity leave, the annual pensionable salary that the person would have been entitled to, had it not been for that absence or leave, if the person had benefitted from such conditions of employment.
In the case where the person, under the conditions of employment that should have been applicable during that period, would not have received salary on the date Retraite Québec received the person’s application for redemption, the tariff applies to the annual pensionable salary that would have been paid on that date if the person had continued to hold, up to that date, the employment held on the last day worked.
If that employment no longer exists with the employer, the tariff applies to the annual pensionable salary that would have been received if the person had benefitted from the conditions of employment that should have applied on the last day worked, increased by the percentage increase in the salary scale provided for in the conditions of employment applicable to class 4 public service management personnel positions between the last day and the day the person’s application for redemption is received at Retraite Québec.

COMPUTATION OF PENSION
(s. 196, 1st par., subpars. 6, 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3)
T.B. 208549, s. 2.
6.0.1. The days and parts of days credited under sections 111, 125 and 126 of the Act, as well as the days and parts of days of absence without pay not credited are not part of the contributory days included in the contributory period.
T.B. 208549, s. 2.
6.0.2. The contributory period of an employee who simultaneously holds, for the first time during a year, more than one employment under the plan is established, for the part of the year where more than one employment is simultaneously held, by retaining a reference employment from among the employments simultaneously held. The reference employment is the employment held by the employee on the day before the day on which more than one employment begin to be held simultaneously or, if none of those employments is held on that preceding day, the employment with the highest annual basic salary.
For each subsequent year, the reference employment retained to establish the contributory period remains the same as long as the employee continues to hold that employment.
The annual basic salary considered is the salary paid or that would have been paid to the employee according to the employment conditions applicable to the employee on the last credited day of the year.
T.B. 208549, s. 2.
6.0.3. Where, in a year, an employee ceases to hold the reference employment retained pursuant to section 6.0.2 and, before the end of that year, the employee simultaneously holds again more than one employment under the plan, that employee’s contributory period is established, for the part of the year where more than one employment is simultaneously held, by retaining as new reference employment from among the employments then held the employment held on the day before the day on which more than one employment begin to be held simultaneously or, if none of those employments is held on that preceding day, the employment with the highest annual basic salary.
Where, in a year, an employee ceases to hold the reference employment retained pursuant to section 6.0.2 and continues to simultaneously hold more than one employment under the plan, that employee’s contributory period is established, for the part of the year that begins on the first day following the day on which the employee ceases to hold the reference employment, by retaining as new reference employment from among the employments held on that first day the employment with the highest annual basic salary.
T.B. 208549, s. 2.
6.0.4. The daily factor used to compute the annualized pensionable salary of an employee who holds employment under the plan for which the basis of remuneration is 260 days is 260.9.
However, that factor is 260 if the employee is
(1)  a teacher employed by a private institution accredited for the purposes of subsidies under the Act respecting private education (chapter E-9.1) whose employment is to teach students as part of the educational services dispensed at preschool, elementary school or secondary school, belonging to one of the categories referred to in paragraphs 1 to 4 of section 1 of that Act and subject, under section 25 of that Act, to the basic school regulation prescribed under the Education Act (chapter I-13.3);
(2)  a teacher employed by a private educational institution within the meaning of the Act respecting private education or employed by a college established by the General and Vocational Colleges Act (chapter C-29) who teaches general or vocational education at the college level;
(3)  a teacher referred to in paragraph 1 or 2 of this paragraph who is, under the plan, released without pay for union activities; or
(4)  a teacher employed by the Collège Marie de France, the Collège Stanislas or The Priory School inc. and whose employment is to teach students.
T.B. 208549, s. 2.
6.0.5. The annual basic salary of an employee who holds pensionable employment for which the basis of remuneration is 200 days and who is paid according to an hourly rate is established by multiplying that rate by the maximum number of hours that may be paid in a year. That number is
(0.1)  720, in the case of a teacher in vocational training;
(1)  800, in the case of a teacher in adult education or a teacher hired by the lesson at the secondary level;
(2)  920, in the case of a teacher hired by the lesson at the preschool or elementary level;
(3)  1,000, in the case of a casual supply teacher.

ACTUARIAL VALUE
(s. 196, 1st par., subpars. 7 and 7.1)
T.B. 203095, s. 1.
6.1. For the purposes of this Regulation, the expression “CIA Standard” refers to the “Standard of Practice for Determining Pension Commuted Values” confirmed by the board of directors of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries on 15 June 2004.
T.B. 203095, s. 1.
6.2. The actuarial values of the benefits referred to in sections 64, 68, 75, 76 and 117 of the Act are determined, taking into account sections 6.3 to 6.6, using the following actuarial assumptions:
(1)  Mortality rates:
The mortality rates are those determined in accordance with the CIA Standard.
(2)  Interest rates:
For fully-indexed and non-indexed benefits:
The interest rates are those determined in accordance with the CIA Standard.
For partially-indexed benefits:
The interest rates are those determined according to the following formula:
((1 + interest rate for a non-indexed benefit) / (1 + indexing rate for a partially-indexed benefit)) – 1
The result must be rounded to the nearest multiple of 0.25%.
(3)  Indexing rate:
(a)  for a fully-indexed benefit according to the rate of increase in the pension index, the indexing rate is computed in the manner described in the CIA Standard;
(b)  for a benefit indexed according to the excess of the rate of increase in the pension index (PI) over 3% or to half of the rate of increase in the pension index, the indexing rate corresponds respectively to the excess of the indexing rate computed in the manner provided in subparagraph a over 3% or to half the indexing rate computed in the manner provided in that subparagraph.
In order to take into account the inflation rate variations, the following additions are made to the results of effective indexing formulas for actuarial value computation purposes.

T.B. 203095, s. 1.
6.3. The actuarial value of the pension referred to in section 64 of the Act is determined using the “benefit allocation” actuarial method and corresponds to the sum of 50% of the actuarial value determined for a male and 50% of the actuarial value determined for a female.
T.B. 203095, s. 1.
6.4. The actuarial value of the deferred pension referred to in section 68 or 76 of the Act is determined using the following actuarial method and assumptions:
Actuarial method
The actuarial method is the “benefit allocation” method and the actuarial value corresponds to the sum of 50% of the actuarial value determined for a male and 50% of the actuarial value determined for a female.
Actuarial assumptions
For that section 68, the actuarial assumptions apply taking into account the rules of Part D of Section 3 of the CIA Standard.
For that section 68 or 76, the interest rate applicable from the CANSIM series published by Statistics Canada in the Bank of Canada Review is the reported rate for the fourth month preceding the month in which the valuation date falls and not that of the second month.
T.B. 203095, s. 1.
6.5. For the purposes of section 75 of the Act, the annual value of the initial pension paid to the employee is adjusted by multiplying it by the percentage obtained by dividing the value “A” by the value “B”, where
“A” corresponds to the actuarial value at the employee’s retirement age; and
“B” corresponds to the actuarial value at age 65.
The actuarial value is determined using the “benefit allocation” actuarial method and the actuarial value corresponds to the sum of 50% of the actuarial value determined for a male and 50% of the actuarial value determined for a female.
T.B. 203095, s. 1.
6.6. The actuarial value of the benefits referred to in section 117 of the Act is determined using the “benefit allocation” actuarial method and the actuarial assumption of retirement age is the age attained at the date of payment of that actuarial value.

(s. 196, 1st par., subpar. 8)
7. For the purposes of section 107 of the Act, the sum of the amounts that employees may add to their pensions may not exceed the amount “M” that corresponds to the lesser of “M 1” and “M 2” in the following formulas:
M 1 = (F × N L × 2.0% × TM) - CR RR
M 2 = F × N × (1.1% × TM + $230)
T.B. 202420, s. 7; T.B. 208549, s. 3.
8. The amount added to an employee’s pension corresponds to the sum of the following amounts:
(1)  the amount “MO” that corresponds to the lesser of “MO 1” and “MO 2” in the following formulas:
i.  MO 1 = [N L x [(F x 2.0% x TM) - (0.7% x (the lesser of TM and MGA))]]- CR RR
ii.  MO 2 = F x N x 1.1% x TM
(2)  an amount equal to the difference between the amount “M” determined in section 7 and the amount “MO” determined in paragraph 1, if the employee is under 65 years of age when the pension becomes payable. The amount is paid until the end of the month in which the pensioner reaches 65 years of age.
T.B. 202420, s. 8.
9. For the purposes of sections 7 and 8,
CR RR is
(1)   the amount of the pension credit on the date of retirement, including the increase referred to in sections 89 and 107.1 of the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (chapter R-10) and takes into account any applicable actuarial reduction or the increase provided for in section 93 of that Act;

(value of a $10 annual pension credit payable monthly as of age 65 according to Table II of Schedule IV.3 to the Regulation under the Act respecting the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan (chapter R-10, r. 2) and taking into account the employee’s age on the date of designation of the employer in the applicable Schedule).
The value of the pension credit attributed must include the rate of any increase referred to in section 89 of that Act between the date of designation of the employer in the applicable Schedule and the date of retirement, and take into account, if applicable, an actuarial reduction of 0.5% per month calculated for each month between the date of retirement and the person’s sixty-fifth birthday;
F is 1 minus the percentage of actuarial reduction applicable to the employee’s pension;
MGA is the average maximum pensionable earnings within the meaning of the Act respecting the Québec Pension Plan (chapter R-9);

TM is
(1)  for a pension credit pertaining to a year prior to 1992, the average pensionable salary established in accordance with subdivision 2.1 of Division I of Chapter IV of the Act on the basis of annualized pensionable salaries that do not take into account the limit provided for in the first paragraph of section 30 of the Act;

(s. 196, 1st par., subpar. 12)
T.B. 203095, s. 3.
10.1. The actuarial values of the benefits referred to in sections 138.1 and 138.7 of the Act are determined using the following actuarial method and assumptions:
Actuarial method
The actuarial method is the “projected benefit method” pro rated on service.
In the case of section 138.1, the pensionable salary of the pension plans involved in the transfer is the salary that is taken into account to determine the average pensionable salary used to calculate the pension.
Actuarial assumptions
(1)  Mortality rates:
The mortality rates are determined in accordance with the CIA Standard.
(2)  Interest rates:
For fully-indexed and non-indexed benefits:
The interest rates are those determined in accordance with the CIA Standard.
For partially indexed benefits:
The interest rates are determined according to the following formula:
((1 + interest rate for a non-indexed benefit)/(1 + indexing rate for a partially-indexed benefit) - 1
The result must be rounded to the nearest multiple of 0.25%.
(3)  Indexing rate:
(a)  for a fully-indexed benefit according to the rate of increase in the pension index, the indexing rate is computed in the manner described in the CIA Standard;
(b)  for a benefit indexed according to the excess of the rate of increase in the pension index (PI) over 3% or to half of the rate of increase in the pension index, the indexing rate corresponds respectively to the excess of the indexing rate computed in the manner provided in subparagraph a over 3% or to half the indexing rate computed in the manner provided in that subparagraph.
In order to take into account the inflation rate variations, the following additions are made to the results of effective indexing formulas for actuarial value computation purposes.

(4)  Turnover rate: Nil
(5)  Disability rate: Nil
(6)  Proportion of employees with a spouse at retirement:
Males: 85%
Females: 60%
(7)  Age of spouse at retirement:
— the male spouse of the member is assumed to be 2 years older;
— the female spouse of the member is assumed to be 3 years younger;
(8)  Rate of increase of the MPE:
The annual increase in the maximum pensionable earnings within the meaning of the Québec Pension Plan corresponds to the annual rate of inflation plus 1%.
(9)  Rate of increase of salaries:
The annual increase in salaries corresponds to the annual increase of the MPE, increased by the annual rate of salary increase.

(11)  Retirement age
For the purposes of section 138.1 of the Act, the retirement age is the age on the date on which membership ceases as determined pursuant to section 8.7 of the Act respecting the Pension Plan of Peace Officers in Correctional Services (chapter R-9.2).

A + (0.7% x B) = M
____________
2%
“A” is ⅔ of the greater of $1,725 and the limit of the determined benefits applicable under the Income Tax Act for the year in which the application for redemption is received at Retraite Québec;
“B” is the part of the pensionable salary that does not exceed the maximum pensionable earnings within the meaning of the Act respecting the Québec Pension Plan (chapter R-9) and that is applicable for the year in which the application for redemption is received at Retraite Québec.
The pensionable salary, for the purpose of establishing the cost of redeeming part of a year prior to 1 January 1990, must be divided by the credited service being redeemed and the amount resulting from that division must not exceed the amount “M” in the first paragraph.
T.B. 202420, s. 12; T.B. 202661, s. 1.
13. If the employee retires on the date of the employee’s sixty-fifth birthday or after that date, the part of the pension related to years or parts of a year prior to 1 January 1990 in which the employee was not a member of a pension plan within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (R.S.C. 1985, c. 1 (5th Suppl.)) and that were redeemed may not exceed the amount obtained by multiplying ⅔ of the greater of $1,725 and the limit of the determined benefits applicable for the year of retirement under the Income Tax Act by the number of years or parts of a year of service credited under the redemption.
If the employee retires before the date of the employee’s sixty-fifth birthday, the part of the pension related to those years or parts of a year may not exceed the amount obtained pursuant to the first paragraph, increased by the amount obtained by multiplying the amount calculated pursuant to section 57 of the Act by the fraction that the number of years or parts of a year of credited service being redeemed is of the number of years or parts of a year of credited service after 31 December 1965, up to a maximum of 35 years of service.

§ 1.  — Rates of interest based on the rates of return of certain funds
17. The interest rate in Schedule VII to the Act, applicable from 1 June of a given year to 31 May of the following year, is established by calculating the geometric mean of the annual rates of return for the 3-year period ending on 31 December of the year preceding the reference year, according to the formula in Schedule II.
T.B. 202420, s. 17; T.B. 213341, s. 2.
18. The annual rate of return is the rate determined by the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec as at 31 December of each year, taking into account the classes of amounts referred to in subparagraphs 1, 2 and 4 of the first paragraph of section 177 of the Act, for the employees’ contribution fund of the Pension Plan of Management Personnel, after subtracting the management expenses.
T.B. 202420, s. 18; T.B. 213341, s. 3.
§ 2.  — Rates of interest based on an external index
19. The interest rate in Schedule VIII to the Act is applicable from 1 June of a given year to 31 May of the following year. The rate is established by determining the arithmetic mean, for the 12-month period ending on 31 December of the preceding year, of the nominal rates of interest on negotiable bonds issued by the Government of Canada for a term of 3 to 5 years as compiled by Statistics Canada and published in the Bank of Canada Review under the identification No. V-122485 in the CANSIM System.

COMPUTATION OF THE INTEREST RATE
The formula for the computation of the rate of interest for the reference year is the following:
iy = ( (1 + Ty-1 ) ( 1 + Ty-2 ) ( 1 + Ty-3 ) ) 1/3 - 1
where:
Ty-1: rate of return for the year preceding the reference year
Ty-2: rate of return for the year occurring 2 years before the reference year
Ty-3: rate of return for the year occurring 3 years before the reference year

(s. 20.1)
INTEREST RATE
Pursuant to section 20.1, the interest rate applicable to contributions referred to in subparagraph 1 of the first paragraph of section 206 of the Act corresponds to rate I determined according to the following formula:
I =[(1+i1) nb1/365 × (1+i2) nb2/365] 1/2 -1, where
i1 represents the interest rate of Schedule VII to the Act applicable at the beginning of the employee’s period of membership until the earlier of the following dates: the date of the end of the period of application of the interest rate, the date of the end of the period of membership or 31 December of the year concerned;
nb1 represents the number of days during which the interest rate represented by the variable i1 is applicable;
i2 represents, where the employee’s period of membership ends on a date later than the date of the end of the period of application of the interest rate represented by the variable i1, the interest rate of Schedule VII to the Act applicable on the day following the end of the period of application until the earlier of the following dates: the date of the end of the period of membership or 31 December of the year concerned;
nb2 represents the number of days during which the interest rate represented by the variable i2 is applicable.
Where the period of membership ends on a date prior to the date of the end of the period of application of the interest rate represented by the variable i1, the term (1+i2) nb2/365 is equal to 1.
