6.43  Application of Division 6.7
 (1) This Division applies to:
 (a) an accumulation interest; and
 (b) a defined benefit interest that is not a defined benefit component.
 (2) This Division does not apply to an interest:
 (a) that is subject to a payment split; or
 (b) on which a payment flag (within the meaning of Part VIIIB or VIIIC of the Family Law Act 1975) is operating.

6.44  Application to roll over, transfer or allot an amount of contributions
 (1) A member of a regulated superannuation fund may, in a financial year, apply to the trustee of the fund to roll over, transfer or allot an amount of benefits, for the benefit of the member's spouse, that is equal to an amount of the splittable contributions made to that fund by, for, or on behalf of the member in:
 (a) the last financial year that ended before the application; or

 (B) has given effect to that application; or
 (b) if the amount of benefits to which the application relates exceeds the maximum splittable amount; or
 (c) subject to subregulation (3), if, at the time of application:
 (i) the member's spouse is aged 65 years or more; or
 (ii) both:
 (A) the member's spouse is aged between the relevant preservation age and 65 years; and
 (B) the member's spouse satisfies the condition of release specified in item 101 of Schedule 1.
 (3) Despite paragraph (2)(c), an application is not taken to be invalid under that paragraph if the application includes a statement by the member's spouse to the effect that, at the time of application, the spouse:
 (a) is aged less than the relevant preservation age; or
 (b) both:
 (i) is aged between the
