Schedule 1 – transitional arrangements

1. Purpose
This Schedule explains the requirements that must be met during the transitional periods (the rollover transition-in period and the contribution transition-in period) to comply with the data and payment standards relating to RSAs.

2. Rollover transitional arrangements

2.1 Rollover transition-in period
For the purposes of this Schedule, the rollover transition-in period means the period between 1 July 2013 and 31 December 2013.

2.2 Transition-in completion date

2.2.1 General transition-in completion date for an entity

The transition-in completion date for an RSA provider is 20 December 2013, unless the RSA provider has an alternative transition-in completion date.

    Note: the transition-in-period for an RSA provider is the period between 1 July 2013 and 20 December 2013 unless section 2.2.2 applies.

2.2.2 Alternative transition-in completion date
   (a) APRA may, by notice in writing to an RSA provider, adjust the date in clause 2.2.1 to an alternative date (alternative transition-in completion date) that applies in place of the transition-in completion date.

   (b) An alternative transition-in completion date determined by APRA under paragraph 2.2.2(a) may apply to part or all of the operation of an RSA provider.

    Note: in this case the transition-in-period for an RSA provider (or part of an RSA provider's operation) is the period between 1 July 2013 and the alternative transition‑in completion date.

    (b)          maintain operation of the temporary entry level profile to receive rollover transaction messages between the hours of 9am and 5pm, Monday to Friday, excepting public holidays in the receiving entity's state or territory (normal business hours).

On and after 1 July 2013 an RSA provider must maintain a capability to receive rollover transaction messages and associated electronic payments that comply with the relevant specifications and requirements contained in the documents referred to in Schedules 3, 4(b), 5 and 6 to the Standard.
