2.2. For the purposes of the plan, a teacher shall participate in a plan from his first day of service in pensionable employment.
A teacher shall participate in a plan as long as he remains a teacher within the meaning of the plan. However, for the purposes of eligibility for and computation of benefits under this plan, where a teacher ceases to be a teacher within the meaning of this plan for any period during which he is not in service in pensionable employment and is not entitled to a pension by reason of permanent and total disability under subparagraph 6 of the first paragraph of section 32 or to a benefit for mental or physical disability paid under a plan established by section 75.1, the teacher is deemed to have ceased to participate,(1) if he is not entitled to a pension, on his last day of service in pensionable employment or, as the case may be, on the date Retraite Québec received an application for redemption whereby years and parts of a year of service have been credited or transferred to the plan if such date is subsequent to the last day referred to above;
(2) if he is entitled to a pension, on the first day he became entitled to the pension, from the day or date which would have been considered if paragraph 1 had applied.
