33C  Classification made on or after 1 October 2022—entry for residential care as non‑respite care on or after that day
 (1) If:
 (a) a care recipient enters a residential care service to be provided with residential care as non‑respite care on or after 1 October 2022; and
 (b) the recipient is classified for non‑respite care under Part 2.4A of the Act on or after 1 October 2022;
the classification takes effect on the day the recipient first enters a residential care service to be provided with residential care as non‑respite care on or after 1 October 2022.
 (2) However, if the care recipient has a break period of more than 28 days before the recipient is classified for non‑respite care, the classification takes effect on the day the break period for the recipient ends.
 (3) A break period for a care recipient:
 (a) begins on the day on which the recipient ceases to be provided with residential care as non‑respite care through a residential care service (other than because the recipient is on leave from the service); and
 (b) ends on the day on which the recipient next enters a residential care service to be provided with residential care as non‑respite care.
