10  Simplified outline of this Part

      Generally, a person is eligible to become an ADF Super member if the person is a member of the Permanent Forces or a continuous full‑time Reservist on or after 1 July 2016.
      Some persons must make an election in order to become an ADF Super member.
      Other persons automatically become members of ADF Super. These persons can later make an election in accordance with Part 3A of the Superannuation Guarantee (Administration) Act 1992 and choose another superannuation fund.
      A person who has never previously been a member of the Defence Force and who becomes a member of the Permanent Forces or a continuous full‑time Reservist on or after 1 July 2016 automatically becomes an ADF Super member.
      A person who is already a member of MSBS must elect to become an ADF Super member. Otherwise, he or she remains a member of MSBS. (A person may have become a member of MSBS by becoming a member of the Permanent Forces or a continuous full‑time Reservist before 1 July 2016, or, for those who have a preserved employer benefit, after that day.)
      A former member of MSBS, who does not have a preserved employer benefit, and who becomes a member of the Permanent Forces or a continuous full‑time Reservist on or after 1 July 2016 automatically becomes an ADF Super member.
      A contributing member of DFRDB who became a member of the Permanent Forces or a continuous full‑time Reservist before 1 July 2016 is not eligible to become an ADF Super member. However, if a member of DFRDB leaves the Defence Force and, on or after 1 July 2016, again becomes a member of the Permanent Forces or a continuous full‑time Reservist, he or she automatically becomes an ADF Super member.
