2  Continuing operation of AWAs

 (1) Subject to this Schedule, the pre‑transition Act continues to apply in relation to an AWA despite the repeals and amendments made by the Workplace Relations Amendment (Transition to Forward with Fairness) Act 2008.

 (2) However, subclause (1) does not apply in relation to the following provisions of the pre‑transition Act:
 (a) the definition of Australian workplace agreement, or the definition of AWA, in subsection 4(1);
 (c) section 467;
 (d) section 399;
 (e) Part 11;
 (f) Schedule 6;
 (g) Schedule 7;
 (h) Schedule 8;
 (i) Schedule 9;
 (j) any other provision to the extent that it relates to the operation of the provisions mentioned in the preceding paragraphs.

Note: The application of Schedules 6, 7, 8 and 9 to AWAs is dealt with in those Schedules.

 (3) Regulations made under the pre‑transition Act continue to apply in relation to an AWA, except to the extent that they relate to the provisions mentioned in subclause (2).

 (4) To avoid doubt, nothing in this Schedule permits an agreement made after the commencement of this Schedule to be treated as an AWA.
