67A  Outstanding enrolment advances after the commencement day

When approval is cancelled after the commencement day
 (1) Notwithstanding the repeal of section 71G of the Family Assistance Administration Act by item 97 of Schedule 1 to the Jobs for Families Act, and to clarify the effect of item 10 of Schedule 4 to the Jobs for Families Act in relation to enrolment advances, if:
