This document officially approves the retirement savings plan (superannuation scheme) for staff at Griffith University under Commonwealth law.

Specifically, it does three things:

Declares the scheme "eligible" under Division 3 of Part IX of the Superannuation Act 1976, allowing it to operate under specific Commonwealth superannuation rules
Declares the scheme "approved" under section 145 of the Act, giving it formal status for certain tax or benefit purposes
Backdates the effect to 1 July 1976, even though the declaration was signed on 23 December 1976

The declaration was made by the Minister for Post and Telecommunications acting on behalf of the Treasurer, using powers granted by the Superannuation Act 1976.
