Section 1: Power to make regulations for grant of pensions, etc

(1) The President may make regulations prescribing the conditions under which and the manner in which pensions, gratuities or other allowances may be granted in respect of the death, disablement or sickness of any member of the armed forces serving or who has served in any of the forces raised under the authority of any law for the time being in force in Uganda, and in respect of the death, disablement or sickness of any member of the armed forces who is serving or has served in any of the forces raised otherwise than under the authority of any law for the time being in force in Uganda, if the member was at the date of joining those forces resident in Uganda. (2) All regulations made under this Act shall have the same force and effect as if they had been enacted in this Act and shall be laid as soon as conveniently may be before Parliament; and if a resolution is passed within forty days of their being so laid before Parliament praying that any such regulation shall be revoked or amended, the regulation shall thenceforth be deemed to be revoked or amended, but without prejudice to anything done under it.
