12 Backdating of treatment
(1) A person who is within a class specified in section 9 or 10 of this instrument is eligible to be provided with treatment of the kind specified in Part 3 from and including the date that is 3 months before the day on which the request to be provided with treatment is received at an office of the Department in Australia provided that date is no earlier than 1 July 2017. (2) However, nothing in subsection (1) affects an entitlement of a person who is within a class specified in Part 2 of the revoked instrument to backdating of treatment for the full 3 months (even if that backdating is to a date that is earlier than 1 July 2017).
