82L  Transfer value payable in respect of previous employment
 (1) In this Division:
 (a) a reference, in relation to a member, to a transfer value payable to or in respect of the member under a superannuation scheme applicable in relation to any employment in which he was employed at any time before the date on which he became a member is a reference:
 (i) in the case of the superannuation scheme constituted by the provisions of this Act and the other Acts relating to retirement benefits for members of the Defence Force—to a transfer value payable in respect of the member under Division 3 of this Part or to a refund of contributions and a gratuity payable to the member; and
 (ii) in the case of any other superannuation scheme—to a benefit by way of a lump sum payable to or in respect of the member under that scheme upon the termination of the employment otherwise than on the ground of invalidity or of physical or mental incapacity to perform the duties of the employment, being a benefit that was based wholly upon contributions under that scheme by the employer or was based partly upon such contributions and partly upon contributions under the scheme by the member; and
 (b) a reference to the amount of a transfer value to which subparagraph (a)(ii) applies does not include a reference to any part of the lump sum that was based upon contributions by the member that were of a similar nature to contributions under the Superannuation Act 1922‑1971 for reserve units of pension.
 (2) If, after a transfer value became payable to or in respect of a person under a superannuation scheme, an amount equal to the whole or any part of that transfer value was paid to a person administering another superannuation scheme (not being the superannuation scheme constituted by the provisions of this Act and of the other Acts relating to retirement benefits for members of the Defence Force):
 (a) where the whole of the transfer value was so paid—that transfer value shall be disregarded for the purposes of this Division; or
 (b) where part of the transfer value was so paid—the amount of that transfer value shall be deemed, for the purposes of this Division, to be reduced by the amount so paid.
 (3) Subject to subsection (4), a transfer value shall be deemed, for the purposes of this Division, to have become payable in respect of a person under a superannuation scheme upon the termination of any employment if, upon the termination of that employment, the person was the owner of a life policy, or was entitled to have the rights of the owner of a life policy
