Tourism Australia (Repeal and Transitional Provisions) Act 2004

This section applies in relation to a person if:

immediately before the proclamation day, the person was a female APS employee involved in administering the Tourism Forecasting Council; and

on and after the proclamation day, she is covered by a determination under subsection 72(1) of the Public Service Act 1999; and

by that determination, she becomes an employee of Tourism Australia; and

within 9 months after the proclamation day, she would have been entitled to start leave granted under the Maternity Leave Act if she had continued to be an APS employee involved in administering the Tourism Forecasting Council.

On and after the proclamation day, the Maternity Leave Act continues to apply to her in relation to the confinement in respect of which she would have been entitled to leave as if Tourism Australia were a prescribed authority for the purposes of that Act.
