 (1) Division 2.17 of Part 2A, as amended by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the amending regulations, applies in relation to the nomination of a proposed occupation that is made on or after 7 December 2024.

 (b) no Subclass 482 (Temporary Skill Shortage) visa application was made in relation to the nomination before 7 December 2024;
then the nominated occupation:
 (c) is taken, from when it is, or was, approved, to have been approved in relation to an applicant or proposed applicant for a Subclass 482 (Skills in Demand) visa; and
 (d) is taken to have been nominated for that visa in:
