Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This short ministerial declaration gives employees of the Wool Research and Development Corporation access to the Commonwealth government's Public Sector Superannuation (PSS) scheme.

What it does:

Declares the Wool Research and Development Corporation to be an "approved authority" under the Superannuation Act 1990.
This means staff of the corporation can join the PSS (the government superannuation fund for federal public servants).
The declaration is backdated to 1 July 1991, meaning the coverage started from that date even though the document was signed in November 1991.

Why it matters: Before this declaration, employees of this corporation likely couldn't access the government super scheme. This is essentially an administrative tweak to expand superannuation benefits to workers in a specific government-backed research body.
