155A  Terms dealing with superannuation
 (1) A modern award must not include a term that has the effect of requiring or permitting contributions, for the benefit of an employee covered by the award who is a default fund employee, to be made to a superannuation fund or scheme specified in the modern award, unless one of the following is satisfied in relation to the fund or scheme:
 (a) it is a fund that offers a MySuper product;
 (b) it is an exempt public sector superannuation scheme.
Note: Contributions may be made to a superannuation fund or scheme for its defined benefit members under section 149A even though the fund or scheme is not specified in a modern award because of this section.

 (a) ensure that the text of a modern award as published by FWA does not include a term that has the effect of requiring or permitting contributions, for the benefit of an employee covered by the award who is a default fund employee, to be made to the fund; and
 (b) do so as soon as is reasonably practicable after receiving the notice.
 (4) Subsection (5) applies if APRA gives FWA notice under section 29XC of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 that a scheme has ceased to be an exempt public sector superannuation scheme and does not offer a MySuper product.

 (a) ensure that the text of a modern award as published by FWA does not include a term that has the effect of requiring or permitting contributions, for the benefit of an employee covered by the award who is a default fund employee, to be made to the scheme; and
