A member who has received or receives an allowance or a severance pay from the public sector as defined in Schedule I and who receives remuneration as a member of the board during the period covered by such allowance or pay shall reimburse the portion of the allowance or severance pay that covers the period for which he receives remuneration, or he shall cease to receive it during that period.

O.C. 1280-98, s. 8.

9. For the purposes of calculating the reduction in the remuneration paid to a member, the fees and allowances referred to in sections 2 to 5, as well as the retirement pension referred to in section 7 shall be calculated on an hourly basis and each $50-portion of additional allowance paid to a member under the third paragraph of section 5 is deemed to be, for the purposes of the calculation, a fee paid for one hour of work.
