(7) Despite the amendments made by this Act, a claim for parental leave pay for a child may be made during the transition period, and the old law continues to apply to the claim as if those amendments had not been made, if:
 (a) the child has not been born at the time of the claim; and
 (b) the expected date of birth of the child is on or after 1 July 2024.
(8) However, if on 1 July 2024 a child in respect of whom a claim referred to in subitem (7) has been made has not been born, then on and after that day the claim is taken to be a claim for parental leave pay under the new law, and the new law applies in relation to the claim on and after that day.
