Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

What this does: This declaration adds three specific organisations to the list of "approved authorities" under the Superannuation Act 1976.

Who it affects: Employees of these three bodies can now join (or are recognised as members of) the Commonwealth Superannuation Scheme (CSS):

Aboriginal Areas Protection Authority (effective from 15 August 1989)
Civil Aviation Authority (effective from 20 June 1990)
University of Canberra (when sponsored by Monash University, effective from 1 January 1990)

Why it matters: Being an "approved authority" means these organisations' employees are eligible for the Commonwealth government's defined benefit superannuation scheme. The declaration has retrospective effect for two of the three bodies, covering employment periods that began before this instrument was made.
