EXPLANATORY NOTE

Under the Superannuation Act 1916 employers within the meaning of the Act are required to make superannuation contributions to the State Superannuation Fund in respect of certain of their employees. Schedule 3 to the Act lists organisations and bodies that are employers for the purposes of the Act. Section 92 of the Act authorises the Governor-in-Council, by Order, to amend the Schedule in certain cases. The purpose of this Order is to amend the Schedule so as to include the New South Wales Financial Institutions Commission in the list of employers. However, the Act will apply only to those employees of the Commission who have not, before being transferred to the Commission, elected to preserve their benefits in the Fund or to preserve those benefits and have them transferred to the Credit Union Savings Reserve Board Employees’ Superannuation Fund in accordance with Schedule 23 to the Act.

The Order takes effect on and from the transfer date specified in the order by which the employment of those employees is transferred to that Commission in accordance with clause 3 of Schedule 3 to the Financial Institutions Commission Act 1992.
