Schedule 1 item 165 of the Aged Care and Other Legislation Amendment Act 2025 instructs to omit and substitute section 251 which appears in part, as follows:

 (3) The claim must be given to the System Governor before the end of:

 (a) whichever of the following periods ends first:

 (i) the period of 60 days after the end of the relevant period;

 (ii) the period of 60 days after an event prescribed by the rules occurs; or

 (b) if the System Governor determines a longer period for the claim than would otherwise apply under paragraph (a)—that longer period.

Note: Because the claim must be given before the end of the period applicable under this subsection, it can be given at any time before the end of that period, including during the relevant period

The note after paragraph 251(3)(b) is missing a full stop.

This compilation was editorially changed to add a full stop at the end of the note that comes after paragraph 251(3)(b) to correct the punctuation.

Paragraph 602(7)(ba)

Changes to grammar, syntax or the use of conjunctives or disjunctives

Paragraph 602(7)(ba) of the Aged Care Act 2024 appears in part, as follows:

 (7) The rules may prescribe an amount by:

 (a) specifying the amount; or

 (b) specifying a method for working out the amount; or

 (ba) specifying that the amount or period may be set by a determination made by the System Governor in accordance with the rules;

 (c) specifying a nil amount.

Paragraph (ba) ends in a semi colon despite being followed by paragraph (c).

This compilation was editorially changed to add “or” at the end of paragraph 602(7)(ba) to bring it in line with legislative drafting practice.
