If the hearing of an appeal referred to in subclause (1) had commenced before the repeal of the GREAT Act, the President of the Commission may give such directions regarding the continuance of the hearing (including directions for the replacement of a member of the former appellate body with a member of the Commission and the exercise of any functions by the Industrial Registrar in relation to the hearing) that the President considers appropriate.
A member of the Commission who replaces a member of the former appellate body is to have regard to the evidence and decisions made in relation to the appeal before the replacement.
A member of the former appellate body is not entitled to any remuneration or compensation because of the loss of office as a consequence of the enactment of the 2010 Act.
