“ (6) For the purposes of sub-regulation (5), the rank in the Navy, Army or Air Force that corresponds with a rank held by a member in a part of the forces of a country referred to in that sub-regulation is the rank that—

(a) is to be regarded as corresponding with that second-mentioned rank by virtue of an order by the Governor-General made under sub-section 26 (1) of that Act; or

(b) where the rank that corresponds with that second-mentioned rank cannot be ascertained by reference to an order referred to in paragraph (a)—is declared by the Minister, by notice in writing, to correspond with that second-mentioned rank.

“ (7) A determination under sub-regulation (1)—

(a) takes effect from the date on which it is made or, if it is expressed to take effect from some other date, that other date;

(b) shall not be expressed to take effect—

(i) from a date before that sub-regulation came into operation; or

(ii) from a date that is more than 2 years before the date on which it is made; and

(c) shall not be expressed to take effect from a date before the date on which it was made in a case where, if it so took effect—

(i) the rights of a person (other than the Commonwealth or an authority of the Commonwealth) existing at the date on which it is made would be affected in a manner prejudicial to that person; or

(ii) liability would be imposed on a person (other than the Commonwealth or an authority of the Commonwealth) in respect of anything done or omitted to be done before the date on which it is made.
