Explanatory note

Under the State Authorities Superannuation Act 1987 (the Act), employers are required to make superannuation contributions in respect of their employees to the State Authorities Superannuation Fund.

Before 1 July 1999, the Australian Red Cross Society (the Society) was the employer, for the purposes of the Act, of the staff of its NSW Blood Transfusion Service (the Service) because the Society was a public health organisation, within the meaning of the Health Services Act 1997, in respect of the Service. From 1 July

State Authorities Superannuation (Australian Red Cross Blood Service) Order 1999

Explanatory note

1999, the Society is no longer a public health organisation in respect of the Service. Further, on 1 July 1999 the staff of the Service became staff of the Australian Red Cross Blood Service of the Society.

The object of this Order is to ensure the continued application of the Act in respect of those members of the staff of the Australian Red Cross Blood Service who were, before 1 July 1999, members of the staff of the NSW Blood Transfusion Service. It achieves this object by amending Schedule 1 to the Act (which specifies the organisations and bodies who are employers for the purposes of the Act).

This Order is made under section 46 of the Act. That section allows the Governor- in-Council, by Order, to amend Schedule 1. Section 46 (2) (a) allows such an Order to be made with effect on and from a day that is earlier than the day the Order is published in the Gazette, and section 46 (2) (b) allows the Order to effect the amendment with such limitations as are specified in the amendment (provided the limitations do not operate to the prejudice of an existing contributor).
