Schedule - the manner in which the specified modifiable provisions are modified
Regulation 6.21 is to have effect in relation to trustees and members of
superannuation entities as if it was modified, by inserting after subregulation 6.21(1C)
(as inserted by Modification Declaration No 24):
“6.21(1D) During the period 10 May 2006 to 30 June 2007:
(i) a member’s benefits in a regulated superannuation fund (other than the member’s post-65 employer-financed benefits) are not required to be cashed in accordance with paragraphs 6.21(1)(a), 6.21(1)(b) or 6.21(1) (c); and
(ii) a member’s post-65 employer-financed benefits are not required to be cashed in accordance with paragraphs 6.21(1A)(a) or 6.21(1A)(b).
6.21 (1E) The cashing of a member’s benefits (including the member’s post-65 employer-financed benefits) by a trustee during the period 10 May 2006 to the date of registration of this modification declaration is not a breach of regulation 6.21 as modified.
