This regulation ensures that a specific fund — originally called \"Coalsuper Retirement Income Fund\" and now known as AUSCOAL Super — is officially recognised under WA coal industry legislation. \n\nBy \"designating\" this fund for **section 7B** of the parent Act, the regulations ensure that:\n- The right fund is used for employer contributions\n- Workers' retirement savings are directed to a properly regulated fund (registered with APRA, the Australian Prudential Regulatory Authority — the government body that oversees super funds)\n- There's legal clarity about which fund applies under the state legislation\n\n**In simple terms:** This is essentially paperwork that says \"for the purposes of WA coal industry super law, when we say 'the fund', we mean this specific super fund with this specific registration number.\""},"summary":{"complexity_score":2,"scope_assessment":{"changed":false,"description":"Scope cannot be assessed as the legislative text is not available.
