13  Validation of percentage of care determinations—child support
(1) If:
 (a) a determination that was made, or purportedly made, in relation to a responsible person for a child in the relevant period under section 49 or 50 of the Child Support Act for the purposes of section 51 of that Act would, apart from this item, be wholly or partly invalid or ineffective only because of the operation of paragraph 53(1)(c) of that Act, as in force in that period; and
 (b) the change of care day for the responsible person for the child occurred in the relevant period;
then the determination, and any other decision covered by subitem (2), is as valid and effective, and is taken always to have been as valid and effective, as it would have been had section 53 of the Child Support Act, as amended by this Act, been in force during that period.
(2) This subitem covers a decision that was made under the Child Support Act or the Child Support (Registration and Collection) Act in the relevant period in relation to the responsible person or another person in connection with the making of the determination.
(3) This item does not affect rights or liabilities arising between parties to proceedings heard and finally determined by a court before the commencement of this item, to the extent that those rights or liabilities arose from, or were affected by, a determination, or other decision, referred to in subitem (1).
(4) In this item:
relevant period means the period beginning on 23 May 2018 and ending at the end of the day before the commencement of this item.
