- Transitional
Board, day of service, employee and employer have the same meaning as in the principal Act; and
the appointed day means the day fixed by the Minister by Order published in the Government Gazette as the appointed day for the purposes of this section.
(2) Notwithstanding anything in the principal Act, the provisions of section 30(2), 31(2) and 34(1) of that Act do not apply until the appointed day to or in relation to a natural person, firm or body corporate who or which becomes an employer by reason of section 4(a) of this Act.
(3) Notwithstanding anything in section 21 of the principal Act, a person who is employed as an employee on the appointed day who applies for registration as an employee at any time on or after the appointed day and is registered as an employee is entitled to have the days of continuous service with that employer preceding the date of his application included as days of service.
(4) Notwithstanding anything in section 34 of the principal Act, an employer shall pay to the Board in respect of any person referred to in subsection (3) whose service with the employer has been continuous for a period of at least 10 years ending on the appointed day such amount as is assessed by the Board as contributions in respect of the paid long service leave contributions in relation to that person.
(5) An amount assessed by the Board under subsection (4) shall, if not paid within the time specified by the Board, constitute a debt to the Board and is recoverable by the Board in any court of competent jurisdiction.
- Validation
Where a regulation is made under section 3(4)(c) of the principal Act, any act done or thing omitted to be done before the coming into operation of that regulation which constituted a contravention of the principal Act but which would have been lawful if done or omitted to be done after the coming into operation of the regulation, shall be deemed to have been lawfully done.
