49  Amount to be paid to non‑member spouse—benefit payable only as lump sum that is equal to or more than adjusted base amount
 (1) This regulation applies in relation to the superannuation interest if:
 (a) the first splittable payment that the member spouse or other person is entitled to receive is a lump sum (other than a lump sum that the member spouse or other person may be entitled to receive because the member spouse or other person may choose, by way of a commutation of a pension payable to him or her, or otherwise, to take the whole, or a part, of the benefits in respect of the interest, as a lump sum); and
 (b) the lump sum is equal to or more than the amount of the adjusted base amount applicable to the non‑member spouse at the time the splittable payment becomes payable.
 (2) The amount that the non‑member spouse is entitled to be paid from the lump sum is the amount that is equal to the amount of the adjusted base amount applicable to the non‑member spouse at that time.
 (3) The non‑member spouse is not entitled to be paid any amount from any other splittable payment in respect of the superannuation interest.
