               Division 5 Operation of certain provisions—MRCA and DRCA (Defence, Veterans' and Families' Acute Support Package) Amendment Instrument 2024

         14 Operation of paragraphs 7(5)(b) and 8(3)(b) during relevant period
         (1) This section applies in relation to the determination of a person's eligibility, made during the relevant period:
            (a) for the granting of an acute support package under section 7 (a relevant determination); or
            (b) for the person's inclusion in a support plan under section 8 (a relevant determination).

         (2) An amendment made by the following provisions of the amending instrument is taken to have effect in relation to a relevant determination:
            (a) item 8 of schedule 1 (which substitutes paragraph 7(5)(b));
            (b) item 15 of schedule 1 (which inserts new paragraph 8(3)(b)).

         (3) However, the amendment does not affect a relevant determination made before the day after the registration day if giving effect to the amendment would:
             1.          affect a person's rights as at the registration day so as to disadvantage the person; or
             2.          impose liabilities on a person in respect of anything done or omitted to be done before the registration day.

    (4) In this section:
         amending instrument means the MRCA and DRCA (Defence, Veterans' and Families' Acute Support Package) Amendment Instrument 2024.
          registration day means the day the amending instrument is registered under section 15H of the Legislation Act 2003.
         relevant period means the period beginning on 1 July 2023 and ending at the end of the registration day.
