 (1) If:
 (a) a decision is taken to promote an ongoing APS employee; and
 (b) the employee will need to move to another Agency to take up the promotion; and
 (c) the employee is suspected of having breached the Code of Conduct and is formally advised of the suspected breach in accordance with procedures established under subsection 15(3), 41B(3) or 50A(2) of the Act; and
 (d) the matter to which the suspected breach relates is not resolved before the APS employee moves to take up the promotion;

 (2) For the purposes of subsection (1), the matter to which the suspected breach relates is taken to be resolved when:
 (a) a determination is made as to whether the APS employee has breached the Code of Conduct; or
 (b) it is decided that such a determination is not necessary.
