The amendments made by the 2015 amending Act do not apply for the purposes of the Workers’ Compensation (Dust Diseases) Act 1942 or the Workers Compensation (Bush Fire, Emergency and Rescue Services) Act 1987 and a reference in either of those Acts to a provision of the Workers Compensation Acts is a reference to the provision without regard to any amendment made by the 2015 amending Act.
This clause does not apply, and is taken never to have applied—
in respect of the Workers Compensation (Bush Fire, Emergency and Rescue Services) Act 1987, to an amendment made by the 2015 amending Act to section 25 of the 1987 Act, or
in respect of the Workers’ Compensation (Dust Diseases) Act 1942, to an amendment made by the 2015 amending Act to section 26 of the 1987 Act, or
to clause 5 of this Part in its application to either of those amendments.
