48. Where the current service contribution, stabilization contribution or technical amortization payment is divided, any variation in the amount of the monthly payments of any of the contributions or amortization payments may, on the conditions provided for in the funding policy of the pension plan, take effect on the first day of the fiscal year following the one for which the contributions are calculated.
Where the value, discounted at the date of the actuarial valuation, of the monthly amounts of the amortization payments to be made for the period affected by the deferment of the variation is less than the amount of the technical actuarial deficiency established by the actuarial valuation, the amount of the technical actuarial deficiency on the first day of the following fiscal year must correspond to the difference between the following:(1) the accumulated value of the technical actuarial deficiency determined as at the date of the actuarial valuation;
(2) the accumulated value of the required monthly payments set out in the previous actuarial valuation in relation to such a deficiency for the period affected by the deferment of the variation.
The deferment of contributions applies only to the component of a pension plan that so provides and only to those contributions expressly affected thereby.
The discounted or accumulated values are determined using an interest rate identical to the rate used to establish the plan’s liabilities at the date of the actuarial valuation.
The provisions of this section apply despite those of the fourth paragraph of section 41 of the Act.
