#### 53 Section 51 does not apply in certain circumstances
(1) Section 51 does not apply in relation to a responsible person in relation to whom a determination is to be or has been made under section 49 or 50 if:
(a) in a case where subparagraph 49(1)(a)(i) or 50(1)(a)(i) applies in relation to the determination—the day the application referred to in that subparagraph is made is after the end of the maximum interim period for the determination; or
(b) in a case where subparagraph 49(1)(a)(ii) or 50(1)(a)(ii) applies in relation to the determination—the day referred to in that subparagraph is after the end of the maximum interim period for the determination.
(2) Section 51 also does not apply in relation to a responsible person in relation to whom a determination (a later determination) has been made under section 49 or 50 if:
(a) an earlier determination determined the responsible person’s percentage of care for a child under that section for the purposes of subsections 51(3) and (4); and
(b) the later determination is made after the end of the maximum interim period for the earlier determination; and
(c) the later determination relates to the same care arrangement as the earlier determination.
