Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This determination exempts two Victorian Transport Accident Commission care payments — Attendant Care Service and Post Acute Support — from Centrelink’s compensation recovery rules, so they won’t be treated as income that reduces pensions or allowances.

It affects Victorians injured in transport accidents who receive these TAC care allowances, ensuring they can get necessary care without losing social security support.

3. Personal care support schemes

I determine that the schemes for the provision of personal care support known as Attendant Care Service and Post Acute Support (being the schemes of that name established by the Victorian Transport Commission under the Transport Accident Act 1986 (Vic) under which an allowance for long term and temporary care is paid to certain injured persons) are approved schemes for the purposes of the Social Security Act 1991.
