 (1) If CSC receives an application from an ADF Super pensioner or reversionary beneficiary to commute all or part of an account‑based pension he or she is receiving under this Division, CSC may, in accordance with the application and subject to the SIS Act:
 (a) roll over or transfer all or part of the balance of the pension account (from which the pension is paid) to any of the following for his or her benefit:
 (i) a regulated superannuation fund (as defined in the SIS Act);
 (ii) an approved deposit fund (as defined in the SIS Act);
 (iii) an RSA provider (as defined in the Retirement Savings Accounts Act 1997); or
 (b) pay the applicant a lump sum of an amount equal to all or part of the balance of the pension account; or
