This Ministerial declaration (1 Apr 1986) designates as an "approved class of part‑time employees" permanent Commonwealth officers (per the Public Service Act 1922) employed by the Commonwealth or an approved authority whose terms permit permanent part‑time work.

Its effect is purely classificatory under s.3(1) of the Superannuation Act 1976: it changes who counts as a part‑time employee for the Act’s purposes but does not set rates, entitlements or administrative rules.
