What this does

This document adds the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority Act 1998 (the law governing banks, insurers and superannuation funds) to the official list of legislation that Centrelink is permitted to administer.

Why it matters

Under the Human Services (Centrelink) Act 1997, Centrelink can only provide services or perform functions under laws that are specifically designated as "designated program Acts". This instrument exercises a power in that Act to add the APRA Act to that list.

In practice

This allows Centrelink to enter into agreements with the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) to deliver services, process payments or handle customer matters under the APRA Act. Without this designation, Centrelink would lack legal authority to perform those functions.
