Preservation of rights of City of Perth superannuation scheme members who became employees of other local governments
23 Preservation of rights of City of Perth superannuation scheme members who became employees of other local governments
In this section —
City of Perth scheme means the superannuation scheme established under the Local Government Act 1960 section 170C, as the scheme is amended from time to time;
employee and employer have the meanings given in the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (Commonwealth) section 10;
industry scheme has the meaning given in regulations made under the Local Government Act 1995 section 5.47.
This section applies to any person who, immediately before section 26 comes into operation, is a person in respect of whom, under the City of Perth Restructuring Act 1993 section 29, a local government is required to participate in and comply with the City of Perth scheme.
A local government whose employee is a person to whom this section applies must, in respect of that employee, continue to participate in and comply with the City of Perth scheme in the same way and to the same extent as the City of Perth would be required to do if the person were its employee.
Subsection (3) ceases to apply in respect of a local government’s employee if the employee elects to become a member of the industry scheme.
