20  How the FW Act applies to modern awards made in the State reference public sector transitional award modernisation process

(1) A State reference public sector modern award made under Division 2 is, for the purposes of the FW Act (and any other law), taken to be a modern award (being a State reference public sector modern award) within the meaning of that Act from the day on which the State reference public sector modern award is made.

(2) Section 49 of the FW Act does not apply for the purpose of determining when the State reference public sector modern award comes into operation. Instead, the modern award comes into operation on the day on which it is expressed to commence, being a day that is not earlier than the day on which the modern award is made.

(3) The regulations may deal with other matters relating to how the FW Act applies in relation to State reference public sector modern awards.
