EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
Issued by the authority of the Minister for Ageing
Aged Care Act 1997
Aged Care (Amount of flexible care subsidy – extended aged care at home) Amendment Determination 2006.
(ACA Ch. 3 No. 18/2006)
Section 1 states that the name of this Determination is the Aged Care (Amount of flexible care subsidy – extended aged care at home) Amendment Determination 2006 and that it may also be cited as ACA Ch. 3 No. 18/2006.
Section 2 specifies that this Determination commences on the day after it is registered.
Section 3 amends the Aged Care (Amount of flexible care subsidy – extended aged care at home) Determination 2006 (also cited as ACA Ch. 3 No. 10/2006).
Subsection 3(1) of this Determination removes the reference in ACA Ch. 3 No. 10/2006 to the revocation of section 1 of ACA Ch.3 No. 22/2005. This is required because ACA Ch. 3 No. 22/2005 does not contain a section 1.
ACA Ch. 3 No. 22/2005 is instead revoked in its entirety by the Aged Care (Amount of flexible care subsidy – extended aged care at home) Revocation Determination 2006 (also cited as ACA Ch.3 No. 19/2006).
Subsection 3(2) of this Determination clarifies that ACA Ch. 3 No. 10/2006 determines a single daily amount of flexible care subsidy for the provision of extended aged care at home.
Subsection 3(3) removes some redundant words from ACA Ch. 3 No. 10/2006.
As this Determination makes minor technical amendments to ACA Ch. 3 No. 10/2006 no consultation with industry was undertaken.
