Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This amendment updates the regulations to reference the current Defence Force pay determination so retirement and death benefits automatically reflect up-to-date pay rates and any later modifications.

That change means former and current Defence members and their families receive benefits calculated with current salaries, and the Department of Defence avoids repeated regulatory amendments.
