(b) a registered waterside worker who has been continuously registered as such for a period of ten years ceases to be a registered waterside worker and the Authority, on the application of that registered waterside worker, certifies in writing that his ceasing to be so registered—
(i) arose from such an illness, incapacity or disability as rendered him permanently incapable, or likely to be permanently incapable, of properly carrying out the duties of a registered waterside worker or as rendered him a danger to others; or
(ii) arose from the cancellation of his registration under section 32 of the Stevedoring Industry Act,
he shall be deemed to have been entitled, immediately before he ceased to be so registered or died, as the case may be—

“(1) Where—
(a) a person who has been continuously registered as a waterside worker for not less than five years ceases to be a waterside worker and the Authority, on the application of the person, certifies in writing that the person’s ceasing to be so registered arose from the cancellation of his registration on the ground that his services were no longer required; or
