29Approved course of education or study—break in course

#### 29 Approved course of education or study—break in course (1) This section applies if: (a) an individual engages in a recognised participation type consisting of either: (i) an approved course of education or study for the purposes of paragraph 12(2)(c) of Schedule 2 to the Family Assistance Act; or (ii) an Australian course of study for the purposes of section 23A of these Rules; and (b) a scheduled semester or vacation break during the course includes a CCS fortnight, or any part of a CCS fortnight. (2) For the purposes of paragraph 12(3)(b) of that Schedule, the individual is taken also to engage in a recognised participation type of the same kind for the purposes of paragraph 12(2)(c) of that Schedule during the period of the scheduled semester or vacation break that occurs during the CCS fortnight. (3) However, an individual is not taken under subsection (2) also to engage in a recognised participation type in relation to a break that: (a) occurs at the start or end of a course mentioned in paragraph (1)(a); or (b) arises because the individual defers starting or continuing such a course. (4) For the purposes of paragraph 12(4)(a) of that Schedule, the number of hours of a recognised participation type engaged in by the individual to which subsection (3) of this section applies during a scheduled semester or vacation break is taken to be the same number of hours as the number of hours of that course normally scheduled during a period of the same length.
