63.1.1. If a member or former member of the council and his or her spouse of the opposite or the same sex have ceased living together and neither was married or in a civil union on the date on which they ceased living together, and provided that the spouse had been living in a conjugal relationship with the member or former member and had been publicly represented as the member’s or former member’s spouse for one year if a child is born or to be born of their union or, otherwise, for not less than three years prior to the date on which they ceased living together, they may agree, within 12 months following that date and on the conditions and according to the terms prescribed by regulation, to a partition of the benefits accrued by the member or former member under this pension plan; such an agreement may not, however, confer on the spouse more than 50% of the value of such benefits.
For that purpose, the member or former member and the spouse are entitled to obtain, upon application made to Retraite Québec on the conditions and according to the terms prescribed by regulation, a statement setting out the value of the benefits accrued by the member or former member under this plan, established as at the date on which they ceased living together, and any other information determined by the regulation.
