(b) The board of trustees shall adopt rules under which the disability retirement annuity paid to a disability retiree under this subchapter is reduced on a sliding-scale basis or is suspended for a period in which the compensation earned by the retiree for work performed in a 12-month period during the disability retirement, as determined under the rules of the board of trustees, exceeds the compensation earned by the retiree during the 12-month period in which the retiree earned the highest compensation for actual service as a member of the retirement system.
(c) The rules adopted under Subsection (b) must provide for the partial or full reinstatement of a disability retirement annuity that is reduced or suspended if the compensation earned by the retiree for work performed during the disability retirement is reduced or suspended.
