 (a) an assessment of the care recipient's care needs made under section 22‑4 for the purposes of the approval is taken to be an assessment of the level of care needed by the care recipient under this section; and
 (b) the assessment is taken to have been made for the purposes of classifying (or reclassifying) the care recipient under this Part for respite care.

29C‑4  Care recipients may have classifications for both respite and non‑respite care
  A classification of a care recipient under this Part for *respite care, and a classification of the care recipient under this Part for *non‑respite care, may both be in effect at the same time.

29C‑5  Classification levels
 (1) The Classification Principles may set out the *classification levels for classifications of care recipients under this Part.

 (1) A classification of a person under this Part is not in effect if the person has ceased to be a care recipient in relation to whom this Division applies (see section 29C‑1).

29C‑8  Use of computer programs to make decisions
 (1) The Secretary may arrange for the use, under the Secretary's control, of computer programs for making decisions on the classification of care recipients under section 29C‑2.
 (2) A decision made by the operation of a computer program under such an arrangement is taken to be a decision made by the Secretary.
 (3) The Secretary may, under section 29C‑2, substitute a decision for a decision the Secretary is taken to have made under subsection (2) if the Secretary is satisfied
