(9) The Board may, in fixing administrative charges to be debited against members' accounts under this regulation, fix different charges depending on the balance of members' accounts or any other relevant factor. (10) Despite a preceding subregulation, if a member whose only account in the scheme is a co-contribution account satisfies the Board that he or she is unlikely to receive any further co-contributions that will be payable to the Board in respect of the member, the Board may allow the member to carry over the balance of the account to some other superannuation fund or scheme approved by the Board (and when the balance has been carried over by the Board the person will cease to be a member of the Triple S scheme).

(3) The cost of any medical examination to which an applicant is required to submit for the purposes of subregulation (2) is to be borne by the applicant. (4) If it appears to the Board-- (a) that an applicant's state of health is such as to create a risk of invalidity or premature death; or (b) that an applicant has in the past engaged in a prescribed activity that increases the risk of invalidity or premature death; or (c) that an applicant is likely in the future to engage in an activity of a kind referred to in paragraph (b), the Board may grant the application on authorised conditions. (5) A condition on which an application has been granted (whether under the repealed Act or these regulations) may be varied or removed by the Board if the Board considers it appropriate to do so following consideration of medical evidence provided by the applicant (but a condition may not be removed unless the Board is satisfied that none of the circumstances specified in subregulation (4)(a), (b) or (c) apply in relation to the applicant). (6) Subject to subregulation (7), if it appears to the Board that an applicant withheld information required in relation to his or her application under this regulation, the Board may withhold or reduce insurance benefits that the applicant would otherwise have been entitled to. (7) If-- (a) it appears to the Board that an applicant withheld information required in relation to his or her application under this regulation; and (b) the withheld information relates to an illness, condition or disability suffered by the applicant that caused or is connected with the applicant's invalidity or death, the Board must withhold insurance benefits that the applicant or another person would otherwise have been entitled to in respect of that invalidity or death.

(2) Subject to this regulation, a member may apply to the Board for the benefit of this regulation if-- (a) the member has reached-- (i) the age of 55 years; and (ii) his or her preservation age; and (b) in the case of the first application by the member under this regulation--the combined balance of his or her eligible contribution accounts equal or exceed the basic threshold. (3) An application under this regulation may be made for the payment of the whole, or a specified proportion, of the balance of the member's eligible contribution accounts but, in the case of the first application by a member under this regulation, the application must seek the payment of an amount that is at least equal to the basic threshold. (4) Once a member has made an application under this regulation, a second or subsequent application cannot be made-- (a) unless at least 12 months have elapsed from any preceding application; and (b) unless the combined balance of his or her eligible contribution accounts equals or exceeds $30 000. (5) The Board may require that an application under this regulation be made in such manner, and comply with such requirements, as the Board thinks fit. (6) The payment will, according to an election made by the member as part of his or her application, be invested by the Board (on behalf of and in the name of the member)-- (a) with the Superannuation Funds Management Corporation of South Australia; or (b) with another entity that will provide a non-commutable income stream for the member while the member continues to be employed in the workforce, so that the member receives (and only receives) a payment in the form of a pension or annuity (a draw down payment). (7) An investment under subregulation (6) will be on terms and conditions determined by the Board. (8) A member who has-- (a) retired from employment; or (b) reached the age of 65 years, may commute an entitlement to a draw down payment so that the investment is brought to an end and the balance paid to the member. (9) The value of an investment may also be redeemed in due course under subregulation (13). (10) When the Board makes a payment on an application under this regulation-- (a) any account from which the payment, or a part of the payment, has been drawn will be immediately adjusted to take into account the payment; and (b) section 18(2) of the Act will apply with respect to the relevant components constituting the payment. (11) When a member retires from employment (and is thus entitled to a benefit under regulation 54), the member's entitlement under regulation 54 will be adjusted to take into account an entitlement provided under this regulation (and that regulation will then have effect accordingly). (12) If a member's employment is terminated on account of invalidity or by the member's death, or the member is suffering from a terminal illness, any entitlement under regulation 58 or 59 (as the case requires) will be adjusted to take into account an entitlement provided under this regulation (and the relevant regulation will then have effect accordingly). (13) When a member retires, has his or her employment terminated on account of invalidity or dies (whichever first occurs), an investment being held under subregulation (6) may be redeemed (subject to any rules or requirements applicable to the exercise of a power of redemption). (14) The making of a payment under this regulation must take into account the operation of any provision under Part 5. (15) In this regulation-- eligible contribution accounts of a member means-- (a) the member's employee contribution account; and (b) the member's employer contribution account; and (c) the member's rollover account; and (d) the member's co-contribution account. 54--Retirement (1) A member who retires from employment is entitled to-- (a) payment of the employee component and the employer component; and (b) payment of-- (i) the rollover component (if any); and (ii) the co-contribution component (if any), to the extent that payment of the component can be made in accordance with the SIS Act. (2) A rollover component, or the part of a rollover component, or a co-contribution component, that cannot be paid in accordance with the SIS Act must be preserved and regulation 55(7) and (8) apply to and in relation to it. (3) For the purposes of this regulation, a member retires from employment if-- (a) the member has reached the retirement age; and (b) the member's employment terminates or is terminated for any reason (except the member's death). 55--Resignation (1) If a member resigns from employment before reaching the retirement age the member may elect-- (a) to take immediately the employee component; or (b) to preserve the employee component; or (c) to carry the employee component over to some other superannuation fund or scheme approved by the Board. (2) If a member resigns from employment before reaching the retirement age the member may elect-- (a) if the balance of the member's employer contribution account is less than $200--to take immediately the employer component; or (b) to preserve the employer component; or (c) to carry the employer component over to some other superannuation fund or scheme approved by the Board. (3) If a member resigns from employment before reaching the retirement age the member may elect-- (a) to take immediately the rollover component (if any) to the extent that payment of that component can be made in accordance with the SIS Act; or (b) to preserve the rollover component; or (c) to carry the rollover component over to some other superannuation fund or scheme approved by the Board. (4) If a member resigns from employment before reaching the retirement age, the member may elect-- (a) to take immediately the co-contribution component (if any) to the extent that payment of the component can be made in accordance with the SIS Act; or (b) to preserve the co-contribution component; or (c) to carry the co-contribution component over to some other superannuation fund or scheme approved by the Board. (5) A member who fails to inform the Board in writing of his or her election under subregulation (1), (2), (3) or (4) within 3 months after resignation will be taken to have elected to preserve the employee, employer, rollover or co-contribution component, as the case requires. (6) If the Board is of the opinion that the limitation period referred to in subregulation (5) would unfairly prejudice a member, the Board may extend the period as it applies to the member. (7) If the member elects to preserve the employee, employer, rollover or co-contribution component, the following provisions apply subject to subregulation (8): (a) the member may at any time after reaching 55 years of age require the Board to authorise payment of the component and, if no such requirement has been made on or before the date on which the member reaches 65 years of age, the Board will authorise payment of the component to the member; (b) if the member-- (i) has become incapacitated and satisfies the Board that his or her incapacity for all kinds of work is 60% or more of total incapacity and is likely to be permanent; or (ii) satisfies the Board that he or she is suffering from a terminal illness, the Board will authorise payment of the component to the member; (c) if the member dies, the component will be paid to the spouse of the deceased member or, if he or she left no surviving spouse, to the member's estate, (and a payment under any of the above paragraphs excludes further rights so that a claim cannot be subsequently made under some other paragraph). (8) Subregulation (7) applies to a rollover component or a co-contribution component subject to restrictions imposed by the SIS Act. (9) A member who has elected, or has been taken to have elected, to preserve his or her employee component, employer component, rollover component or co-contribution component and to whom the component has not been paid under subregulation (7), may elect to withdraw that election and to elect to carry the component over to some other superannuation fund or scheme approved by the Board. (10) If 2 or more components have been preserved, a member cannot make an election under subregulation (9) unless the member elects to carry both or all of the components over. (11) If the member elects to carry over the employee, employer, rollover or co-contribution component to an approved superannuation fund or scheme, the following provisions apply: (a) the member must satisfy the Board by such evidence as it may require that he or she has been admitted to membership of the fund or scheme; (b) on being so satisfied the Board will authorise payment of the component on behalf of the member to the fund or scheme. (12) If a member has resigned from employment and has elected to preserve the employee, employer, rollover or co-contribution component but has subsequently been re-employed in employment by virtue of which he or she becomes a member of the scheme, the Board may maintain separate contribution accounts or rollover accounts or co-contribution accounts or a combined contribution account or rollover account or co-contribution account in the name of the member. (13) For the purposes of this regulation, and subject to any other provision of the Act or these regulations, a member who has not reached the retirement age will be taken to resign if the member's employment terminates or is terminated for any reason except invalidity (in circumstances entitling the member to benefits under the Act or these regulations), retrenchment or death. (14) This regulation operates subject to regulation 56. 56--Benefits payable to overseas residents If a member who has resigned from employment before reaching the retirement age satisfies the Board that he or she-- (a) was the holder of an eligible temporary resident visa (within the meaning of Part 6 of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994 of the Commonwealth) that has expired or been cancelled; and (b) is residing out of Australia and will continue to do so on a permanent basis, the member may elect to take immediately the balances of any 1 or more of his or her accounts (including any amount that has been preserved under regulation 55). 57--Retrenchment (1) Subject to subregulation (2), if a member's employment is terminated by retrenchment the member is entitled to-- (a) payment of the employee component and the employer component; and (b) payment of-- (i) the rollover component (if any); and (ii) the co-contribution component (if any), to the extent that the payment can be made in accordance with the SIS Act. (2) The member may elect to preserve his or her employee, employer, rollover or co-contribution component or to carry it over to some other superannuation fund or scheme and in the event of such an election the provisions of regulation 55 will apply as if the member had resigned from employment. 58--Invalidity or terminal illness (1) If-- (a) a member's employment terminates on account of invalidity before the member reaches the age of 65 years; or (b) the Board is satisfied that a member whose employment has not terminated is suffering from a terminal illness, the member is entitled to benefits made up of the following components: (c) the employee component; (d) the employer component; (e) the rollover component (if any); (f) the co-contribution component (if any); (g) subject to this regulation and regulation 49(6) and (7)--the basic invalidity insurance benefit and the voluntary invalidity insurance benefit (if any). (2) The basic and voluntary invalidity insurance benefits are not payable to a member entitled to benefits under subregulation (1)(a) if-- (a) the Board is not satisfied that the member's incapacity for all kinds of work is 60% or more of total incapacity and is likely to be permanent; or (b) the Board is satisfied that the member has refused or failed to submit to reasonable medical treatment that, in the opinion of at least 2 medical practitioners providing advice or care to the member in relation to the medical condition to which the member's incapacity is attributable, would be likely to contribute to the member being able to carry out, to a substantial extent (whether on a full-time or part-time basis), the duties of his or her employment or some other employment for which the member is suitably qualified (whether by experience, training, or both) within 2 years of the commencement of the incapacity. (7) The basic and voluntary invalidity insurance benefits are not payable-- (a) to a member who terminates his or her employment in connection with the acceptance of a voluntary separation package; or (b) to a member entitled to benefits under subregulation (1)(a) whose employment is terminated after he or she has been engaged in work in respect of employment to which the Act applies for a period that does not exceed 6 months on account of invalidity attributable to a medical condition existing before the commencement of his or her membership of the scheme; or (c) to a member entitled to benefits under subregulation (1)(b) in respect of a terminal illness attributable to a medical condition existing before the commencement of his or her membership of the scheme, unless (subject to paragraphs (d) and (e)) the member has been engaged in work in respect of employment to which the Act applies for a period that exceeds 6 months; or (d) to a member entitled to benefits under subregulation (1)(a) or (b) who is a member of the scheme by virtue of an election under regulation 10 in respect of invalidity or a terminal illness attributable to a medical condition existing before the commencement of his or her membership of the scheme, unless the member has been a member of the scheme for a period that exceeds 24 months; or (e) to a member entitled to benefits under subregulation (1)(a) or (b) who is a contributor within the meaning of the Superannuation Act 1988 to whom regulation 11 applies in respect of invalidity or a terminal illness attributable to a medical condition existing before regulation 11 first applied to the member, unless regulation 11 has applied to the member for a period that exceeds 24 months. (8) If-- (a) a member entitled to benefits under subregulation (1)(a) was, immediately before termination of his or her employment, a police officer; and (b) the member's incapacity resulted from injuries received in the course of duty, the member is entitled to benefits under subregulation (1) or to payment of an amount calculated as follows, whichever is the greater: 2009.208.un00.jpg Where-- A is the amount S is-- (a) if the member-- (i) held the rank of senior sergeant or a lower rank immediately before termination of his or her employment; and (ii) was at any time during his or her membership of South Australia Police rostered to work on day, afternoon and night shifts, or on any 2 of those shifts, on a rotating basis; and (iii) was not, immediately before termination of his or her employment, employed on a permanent basis on special duties at a salary level greater than that payable to a senior sergeant, the member's actual or attributed salary as defined by the Police Superannuation Act 1990 (expressed as an annual amount) increased by 10%; (b) in any other case--the member's actual or attributed salary as defined by the Police Superannuation Act 1990 (expressed as an annual amount). (9) When determining for the purposes of subregulation (8) whether a member is entitled to benefits under subregulation (1) or to a payment under subregulation (8), the rollover component (if any) and the co-contribution component (if any) will be disregarded (the member is entitled to payment of the rollover component and the co-contribution component in addition to a payment under subregulation (8)). (10) Subregulation (8) does not apply to a police officer who is a member of the scheme by virtue only of regulation 9(5) or (7) (or both).

(14) The time limit of 2 years referred to in subregulation (13) may not be extended under any circumstances.

(4) The basic and voluntary death insurance benefits are not payable in respect of the death of a member that occurs within 6 months of the commencement of his or her membership of the scheme if the death is attributable to a medical condition existing before that commencement. (5) Subject to subregulation (6), if a member takes his or her life-- (a) within 1 year after the commencement of his or her membership of the scheme; or (b) within 1 year after the commencement of, or increase in the level of, voluntary invalidity/death insurance, the following provisions apply: (c) if death occurs within 1 year after the commencement of membership of the scheme or commencement of voluntary invalidity/death insurance--neither basic nor voluntary death insurance benefits are payable; (d) if death occurs within 1 year after an increase in the level of voluntary invalidity/death insurance--voluntary death insurance benefits are not payable in respect of the increased insurance. (6) Subregulation (5)(c) does not apply in relation to a member who was a member of the State Scheme or any other scheme of superannuation established for the benefit of the employees of an agency or instrumentality of the Crown immediately before becoming a member of the Triple S scheme if his or her death occurred on or after the first anniversary of the commencement of his or her membership of the State Scheme or other scheme. (7) If-- (a) the member was, immediately before his or her death, a police officer; and (b) the member died from injuries received in the course of duty, the member's spouse or estate is entitled to benefits under subregulation (2) or to payment of an amount calculated as follows, whichever is the greater: 2009.208.un00.jpg Where-- A is the amount S is-- (a) if the member-- (i) held the rank of senior sergeant or a lower rank immediately before his or her death; and (ii) was at any time during his or her membership of South Australia Police rostered to work on day, afternoon and night shifts, or on any two of those shifts, on a rotating basis; and (iii) was not, immediately before his or her death, employed on a permanent basis on special duties at a salary level greater than that payable to a senior sergeant, the member's actual or attributed salary as defined by the Police Superannuation Act 1990 (expressed as an annual amount) increased by 10%; (b) in any other case--the member's actual or attributed salary as defined by the Police Superannuation Act 1990 (expressed as an annual amount). (8) When determining for the purposes of subregulation (7) whether a member's spouse or estate is entitled to benefits under subregulation (2) or to a payment under subregulation (7), the rollover component (if any) and the co-contribution component (if any) will be disregarded (the spouse or estate is entitled to payment of the rollover component and the co-contribution component in addition to a payment under subregulation (7)). (9) Subregulation (7) does not apply to a police officer who is a member of the scheme by virtue only of regulation 9(5) or (7) (or both). (10) If a member who has died is not survived by a spouse and probate or letters of administration in relation to the deceased's estate have not been granted to any person, the Board may use the amount payable under this regulation, or such part of it as is required, to pay the funeral expenses of the deceased member or to reimburse a person who has paid those expenses. (11) If-- (a) a member's employment terminates or is terminated for any reason (except the member's death); and (b) the member dies within 1 month after the termination of his or her employment, the member's spouse or estate is entitled to the basic death insurance benefit and the voluntary death insurance benefit (if any) that the spouse or estate would have been entitled to if the member's employment had been terminated by the member's death. 60--Commutation to pay deferred superannuation contributions surcharge (1) A member who is liable for a deferred superannuation contributions surcharge as a result of a benefit becoming payable to the member may apply to the Board, in accordance with this regulation-- (a) to receive part of the benefit in the form of a commutable pension; and (b) to fully commute the pension. (2) A member who has become entitled to a benefit, or will shortly become entitled to a benefit, may-- (a) estimate the amount of the surcharge the member will become liable to pay (the estimated surcharge amount); and (b) request the Board, in the approved form, to-- (i) withhold from the member's benefit an amount equal to the estimated surcharge amount (the withheld amount); and (ii) pay the balance of the benefit to the member (being, in the case of a benefit to which the member is yet to become entitled, a payment after the entitlement arises), and the Board must, subject to subregulation (5), comply with the member's request. (3) If a member has made a request under subregulation (2)(b), the member must, before the expiration of 2 months following the issue of a surcharge notice in respect of the member, advise the Board in the approved form that the notice has been issued and the Board must, within 7 days of receiving that advice-- (a) convert into a pension-- (i) if the amount of the surcharge payable by the member is less than the withheld amount--a portion of the withheld amount equal to the amount payable; or (ii) in any other case--the whole of the withheld amount; and (b) immediately after converting the withheld amount, or a portion of the withheld amount, into a pension under paragraph (a)--commute the pension; and (c) pay to the member-- (i) the lump sum resulting from the commutation of the pension; and (ii) the balance (if any) of the withheld amount. (4) If a member who has become entitled to a benefit but has not yet received a surcharge notice provides the Board with satisfactory evidence of the amount of the surcharge he or she will become liable to pay (the surcharge amount) and requests the Board, in the approved form, to apply, or facilitate the application of, an amount of the member's benefit in payment of the surcharge, the Board must, within 7 days of the request-- (a) convert into a pension an amount of the member's benefit that is equal to the surcharge amount; and (b) immediately after converting the amount into a pension under paragraph (a)--commute the pension; and (c) pay the lump sum resulting from the commutation to the member or the Commissioner of Taxation (at the option of the member); and (d) following payment under paragraph (c)--reduce the member's remaining benefits by an amount equal to the surcharge amount. (5) The Board may reject an application under subregulation (1) if-- (a) it is not satisfied that, if the application were accepted, the resulting lump sum will be applied in payment of the surcharge; or (b) the member fails to satisfy the Board that the member has, or will have, a surcharge liability to the Commissioner of Taxation. (6) The factors to be applied in-- (a) the conversion of a withheld amount (or part of a withheld amount) into a pension; and (b) the commutation of a pension, will be determined by the Treasurer on the recommendation of an actuary. 61--Commutation to pay deferred superannuation contributions surcharge following death (1) If a member who is liable for a deferred superannuation contributions surcharge dies-- (a) having made a request of the Board under regulation 60 for part of his or her benefit to be withheld but before receiving a surcharge notice; or (b) having received a surcharge notice but before requesting commutation of his or her pension under regulation 60, the member's spouse or, if the member is not survived by a spouse, the member's legal representative, may, before the expiration of the period of 2 months immediately following the member's death or the issue of the surcharge notice (whichever is the later), apply to the Board-- (c) to receive the amount withheld by the Board on behalf of the deceased member under regulation 60 in the form of a commutable pension; and (d) to fully commute the pension. (2) The Board must, on receipt of an application under subregulation (1)-- (a) convert into a pension-- (i) if the amount of the surcharge payable by the spouse or estate is less than the withheld amount--a portion of the withheld amount equal to the amount payable; or (ii) in any other case--the whole of the withheld amount; and (b) immediately after converting the withheld amount, or a portion of the withheld amount, into a pension under paragraph (a)--commute the pension; and (c) pay to the spouse or estate-- (i) the lump sum resulting from the commutation of the pension; and (ii) the balance (if any) of the withheld amount. (3) If a member dies without having made a request under regulation 60, the member's spouse or, if the member is not survived by a spouse, the member's legal representative, may-- (a) estimate the amount of the surcharge the spouse or estate will become liable to pay (the estimated surcharge amount); and (b) request the Board, in the approved form, to-- (i) withhold from the spouse's benefit or the benefit payable to the estate an amount equal to the estimated surcharge amount (the withheld amount); and (ii) pay the balance of the benefit to the spouse or estate, and the Board must, subject to subregulation (6), comply with the request. (4) An application under subregulation (3) must be made in writing to the Board before payment of the benefit to the spouse or legal representative. (5) The spouse or legal representative must, before the expiration of 2 months following the issue of a surcharge notice in respect of the member, advise the Board in the approved form that the notice has been issued and the Board must, within 7 days of receiving that advice-- (a) convert into a pension-- (i) if the amount of the surcharge payable by the spouse or estate is less than the withheld amount--a portion of the withheld amount equal to the amount payable; or (ii) in any other case--the whole of the withheld amount; and (b) immediately after converting the withheld amount, or a portion of the withheld amount, into a pension under paragraph (a)--commute the pension; and (c) pay to the spouse or estate-- (i) the lump sum resulting from the commutation of the pension; and (ii) the balance (if any) of the withheld amount. (6) The Board may reject an application under subregulation (1) or (3) if it is not satisfied that, if the application were accepted, the resulting lump sum will be applied in payment of the surcharge or be used to reimburse the deceased member's estate, or the spouse or other person who has paid the surcharge on behalf of the estate. (7) The factors to be applied in-- (a) the conversion of a withheld amount (or part of a withheld amount) into a pension; and (b) the commutation of a pension, will be determined by the Treasurer on the recommendation of an actuary. (8) In this regulation-- legal representative, in relation to a deceased member, means a person-- (a) holding office as executor of the will of the deceased member where probate of the will has been granted or resealed in South Australia or any other State or a Territory; or (b) holding office in South Australia or any other State or a Territory as administrator of the estate of the deceased member. 62--Withheld amount An amount withheld under regulation 60 or 61-- (a) must be retained in the Fund; and (b) will be adjusted from time to time by the Board, in accordance with section 13 of the Act, to reflect investment earnings on the amount; and (c) may be paid to the member (or the member's spouse or legal representative)-- (i) in accordance with regulation 60 or 61; or (ii) at the direction of the Board if the Board-- (A) has not, within 2 years of withholding the amount, received advice that a surcharge notice has been issued in respect of the member; or (B) considers, at any time, there is other good reason for doing so. Subdivision 3--PSS 3 members 62A--Interpretation (1) A reference in this Subdivision to a PSS 3 member is a reference to a PSS 3 member who has made an election to take out voluntary invalidity/death insurance under section 36 of the Parliamentary Superannuation Act 1974 and is a member of the Triple S scheme. (2) A PSS 3 member will be taken to have retired for the purposes of this Subdivision if the member is taken to have retired (whether voluntarily or involuntarily) for the purposes of the Parliamentary Superannuation Act 1974. 62B--Retirement of PSS 3 member at or above age 55 (1) A PSS 3 member who-- (a) has retired; and (b) has reached the age of 55 years, is entitled to payment of the employer component of benefits. (2) Subject to subregulation (3), a PSS 3 member who does not apply to the Board in writing for the payment of an entitlement under subregulation (1) within 3 months after retirement will be taken to have preserved the employer component and regulation 62D will apply to and in relation to it. (3) A PSS 3 member who has retired and reached the age of 65 years must immediately be paid the employer component. (4) This regulation does not apply to or in relation to a case involving the death of a PSS 3 member (see regulation 62F) and does not derogate from the ability of a member to apply for a benefit under regulation 62E (rather than taking a benefit under this regulation). 62C--Cessation of membership of PSS 3 member before age 55 (1) Subject to this regulation, a PSS 3 member who retires before reaching the age of 55 years may elect-- (a) to preserve the employer component; or (b) to carry the employer component over to another superannuation fund or scheme that is a complying superannuation fund (as a preserved employer component). (2) A PSS 3 member who does not inform the Board in writing of his or her election under subregulation (1) within 3 months after ceasing to be a member will be taken to have elected to preserve the employer component and regulation 62D will apply to and in relation to it. (3) If the Board is of the opinion that the limitation period referred to in subregulation (2) would unfairly prejudice a member, the Board may extend the period that applies to the member. (4) A PSS 3 member who has elected, or has been taken to have elected, to preserve his or her employer component and to whom the component has not been paid under regulation 62D, may elect to withdraw the election and to elect to carry the component over to a complying superannuation fund. (5) If a member elects to carry the employer component to a complying superannuation fund, the following provisions apply: (a) the member must satisfy the Board by such evidence as it may require that he or she has been admitted to membership of the fund; (b) on being so satisfied the Board will authorise payment of the component on behalf of the member to the fund. (6) If a PSS 3 member has ceased to be a member of the Parliament of the State and has elected to preserve the employer component but has subsequently again become a member of the Parliament, the Board may maintain separate employer contribution accounts in the name of the member. (7) This regulation does not apply to or in relation to a case involving-- (a) a cessation of membership on the ground of invalidity (in circumstances entitling the member to a benefit under regulation 62E); or (b) the death of a PSS 3 member (see regulation 62F). 62D--Preservation of components If an employer component has been preserved under regulation 62B(2) or 62C, then the following provisions will apply: (a) the Board must in relation to a component preserved under regulation 62C, not less than 6 months before the relevant member's 55th birthday (unless that period has already been reached), notify the relevant member in writing of his or her entitlement to require the Board to make a payment under paragraph (b); (b) the relevant member may at any time after reaching 55 years of age require the Board to authorise payment of the component and, if no such requirement has been made on or before the date on which the member reaches 65 years of age, the Board will authorise payment of the component to the member; (c) if the relevant member-- (i) has become incapacitated and satisfies the Board that his or her incapacity for all kinds of work is 60% or more of total incapacity and is likely to be permanent; or (ii) satisfies the Board that he or she is suffering from a terminal illness, the Board will authorise payment of the component to the member; (d) if the relevant member dies, the component will be paid to the spouse of the deceased member or, if he or she left no surviving spouse, to the member's estate, (and a payment under any of the above paragraphs excludes further rights so that a claim cannot be subsequently made under some other paragraph). 62E--Invalidity (1) If-- (a) a PSS 3 member resigns from the Parliament of the State; and (b) a judge is satisfied, before the resignation occurs, that ill health prevents the member from being able to carry out the duties of office to a reasonable degree, the member is entitled to benefits made up of the following components: (c) the employer component; (d) subject to this regulation and regulation 49(6) and (7)--the voluntary invalidity insurance benefit. (2) The voluntary invalidity/death insurance benefits are not payable to a member entitled to benefits under subregulation (1) if-- (a) the Board is not satisfied that the member's incapacity for all kinds of work is 60% or more of total incapacity and is likely to be permanent; or (b) the Board is satisfied that the member has refused or failed to submit to reasonable medical treatment that, in the opinion of at least 2 medical practitioners providing advice or care to the member in relation to the medical condition to which the member's incapacity is attributable, would be likely to contribute to the member being able to carry out, to a substantial extent (whether on a full-time or part-time basis), the duties of office or employment for which the member is suitably qualified (whether by experience, training, or both) within 2 years of the commencement of the incapacity. 62F--Death of PSS 3 member (1) If a PSS 3 member ceases to be a member of the Parliament of the State by reason of his or her death-- (a) if the deceased member is survived by a spouse--a payment will be made to the spouse; (b) if the deceased member is not survived by a spouse--a payment will be made to the member's estate. (2) A payment under subregulation (1)(a) or (b) is to be made up of the following components: (a) the employer component; (b) subject to this regulation, the death insurance benefit (if any). (3) A surviving spouse will not be entitled to a benefit under this regulation if regulation 69 applies to the spouse. (4) If a PSS 3 member takes his or her life-- (a) within 1 year after the commencement of his or her voluntary invalidity/death insurance--voluntary death insurance benefits are not payable; or (b) within 1 year after an increase in the level of his or her voluntary invalidity/death insurance--voluntary death insurance benefits are not payable in respect of the increased insurance. (5) If a PSS 3 member who has died is not survived by a spouse and probate or letters of administration in relation to the deceased's estate have not been granted to any person, the Board may use the amount payable under this regulation, or such part of it as is required, to pay the funeral expenses of the deceased member or to reimburse a person who has paid those expenses. (6) If-- (a) a PSS 3 member ceases to be a member of the Parliament of the State for any reason other than his or her death; and (b) the member dies within 1 month after that cessation, the member's spouse or estate is entitled to the death insurance benefit (if any) that the spouse or estate would have been entitled to if the member had ceased to be a member of Parliament by virtue of the member's death. Division 2--Spouse members 63--Benefits for spouse members (1) Subject to this regulation, the following provisions apply in respect of an amount standing to the credit of a spouse member's spouse account: (a) if-- (i) the spouse member-- (A) has reached his or her preservation age; and (B) is the spouse of the relevant member; and (ii) the relevant member has taken the benefit of regulation 53, payment of the amount may be made to the spouse member subject to restrictions (if any) imposed by the SIS Act; (ab) if the spouse member-- (i) is the spouse of the relevant member; and (ii) has attained the age of 65 years, payment of the amount may be made to the spouse member or rolled over to some other fund or scheme approved by the Board; (b) if-- (i) the spouse member-- (A) has reached the retirement age; and (B) is the spouse of the relevant member; and (ii) the employment of the relevant member has terminated, payment of the amount may be made to the spouse member subject to restrictions (if any) imposed by the SIS Act; (c) if-- (i) the spouse member-- (A) has not reached the retirement age; and (B) is the spouse of the relevant member; and (ii) the employment of the relevant member has terminated, the amount must be preserved; (d) if the spouse member-- (i) is not the spouse of the relevant member; and (ii) has not reached the retirement age, the amount must be preserved; (e) if the spouse member-- (i) is not the spouse of the relevant member; and (ii) has reached the retirement age, payment of the amount may be made to the spouse member subject to restrictions (if any) imposed by the SIS Act. Note-- If all amounts standing to the credit of a spouse member's accounts are paid to the spouse member, the spouse member's voluntary death insurance will be suspended--see regulation 43(2). (2) If an amount standing to the credit of a spouse member's spouse account is preserved under subregulation (1)-- (a) the spouse member may elect to carry the amount over to some other fund or scheme approved by the Board; or (b) subject to restrictions (if any) imposed by the SIS Act, the spouse member may at any time after reaching the retirement age require the Board to authorise payment of the amount and, if no such requirement has been made on or before the date on which the spouse member reaches 65 years of age, the Board will authorise payment of the amount to the spouse member. (3) If-- (a) -- (i) a spouse member suffers physical or mental incapacity; and (ii) the Board is satisfied that the spouse member's incapacity for all kinds of work is 60% or more of total incapacity and is likely to be permanent; or (b) the Board is satisfied that a spouse member is suffering from a terminal illness, the spouse member is entitled to benefits made up of the amount (if any) standing to the credit of each of the spouse member's spouse accounts. (4) If a spouse member dies, the amount (if any) standing to the credit of each of the spouse member's spouse accounts, and the voluntary death insurance benefit (if any), will be paid to-- (a) if the deceased spouse member is survived by a spouse--the spouse; and (b) if the deceased spouse member is not survived by a spouse--the spouse member's estate. (5) However, a surviving spouse will not be entitled to a benefit under subregulation (4) if regulation 69 applies to the spouse. (6) A payment under subregulation (2), (3) or (4) excludes further rights so that a claim cannot subsequently be made under another of those subregulations. (7) In this regulation-- relevant member, in relation to a spouse member, means the member who, by making a prescribed payment (within the meaning of Part 2 Division 2), or a contribution under regulation 23(1), for the benefit of the spouse member, caused the spouse member to become a spouse member of the scheme. Part 5--Family Law Act provisions 64--Purpose of this Part Pursuant to section 30(2) of the Act, the purpose of this Part is to facilitate the division under the Family Law Act 1975 of the Commonwealth of superannuation interests between spouses who have separated. 65--Interpretation In this Part, unless the contrary intention appears-- Commonwealth regulations means the Family Law (Superannuation) Regulations 2001 (No. 303 as amended) of the Commonwealth; eligible person, in relation to a superannuation interest of a member, has the same meaning as in section 90MZB of the Family Law Act 1975 of the Commonwealth; flag lifting agreement has the same meaning as in Part VIIIB of the Family Law Act 1975 of the Commonwealth; member includes a spouse member; member spouse has the same meaning as in Part VIIIB of the Family Law Act 1975 of the Commonwealth; non-member spouse has the same meaning as in Part VIIIB of the Family Law Act 1975 of the Commonwealth; operative time has the same meaning as in Part VIIIB of the Family Law Act 1975 of the Commonwealth; payment split has the same meaning as in Part VIIIB of the Family Law Act 1975 of the Commonwealth; splitting instrument means-- (a) a superannuation agreement; or (b) a flag lifting agreement that provides for a payment split; or (c) a splitting order; splitting order has the same meaning as in Part VIIIB of the Family Law Act 1975 of the Commonwealth; superannuation agreement has the same meaning as in Part VIIIB of the Family Law Act 1975 of the Commonwealth. 66--Non-member spouse entitlement (1) The Board must, on service of a splitting instrument, create an interest for the non-member spouse named in the instrument in accordance with the provisions of the instrument, with effect from the operative time. (2) The value of the non-member spouse's interest will be determined by reference to the provisions of the instrument but in any event may not exceed the value of the member spouse's interest. 67--Payment of lump sum (1) The interest of a non-member spouse under regulation 66 will, according to the election of the non-member spouse-- (a) be paid out to the extent (if any) that payment can be made in accordance with the SIS Act; or (b) be retained to the credit of the non-member spouse in an account in the name of the non-member spouse in the Fund; or (c) be rolled over or transferred to some other superannuation fund or scheme approved by the Board. (2) The Board must, if necessary, establish a member's contribution account so as to provide for the requirements of subregulation (1)(b). (3) The Board must ensure that the money constituting the interest of the non-member spouse continues to be invested in the class of investments, or the combination of classes of investments, that the money was invested in before the creation of the interest unless or until the non-member spouse makes a nomination under section 14(1) of the Act for his or her accounts to be invested in a different class of investments or combination of classes of investments. (4) The Board must take the action required under subregulation (1) within 28 days after receiving the relevant election. (5) However, if an election is not made by the non-member spouse before the end of 28 days after the Board gives notice to the non-member spouse, the Board must, subject to this regulation, transfer the interest to the credit of the non-member spouse under subregulation (1)(b). (6) A notice under subregulation (5) must-- (a) be in writing; and (b) notify the non-member spouse that the interest may be retained in the Triple S scheme; and (c) advise the non-member spouse of-- (i) his or her option to make an election and the consequences of a failure to do so within 28 days; and (ii) the value of his or her interest; and (iii) the basis of any adjustments that have been, or will be, applied to the interest. (7) If the interest of a non-member spouse is transferred to the credit of the non-member spouse in the Triple S scheme because an election has not been made, the Board must, within 14 days of the interest being rolled over-- (a) advise the non-member spouse that his or her interest has been retained in the Triple S scheme; and (b) provide the non-member spouse with a membership identification number, a copy of the most recent annual report prepared in respect of the Triple S scheme and any other information that, according to a determination of the Board, may be of assistance to the non-member spouse. 68--Effect on member's entitlement (1) Despite the other provisions of the Act and these regulations, if a payment split is payable with respect to the superannuation interest of a member, there is a corresponding reduction in the entitlement of the member under the Act or these regulations. (2) A reduction in the entitlement of a member will be given effect on the basis that the member's contribution account, rollover account, and co-contribution account (insofar as they exist) will be subject to a charge that takes effect by reducing the balance of each of those accounts at the operative time (insofar as a balance exists) by a percentage equal to the percentage that the non-member spouse's share in the relevant superannuation interest bears to the total value of the contributor's accrued superannuation benefit at the operative time (subject to any relevant method or factor adopted or applied by the regulations and to the extent necessary to take into account the full value of the entitlement of the non-member spouse). (3) A reduction in the entitlement of a member will not extend to any superannuation benefit that is not a splittable payment under Part VIIIB of the Family Law Act 1975 of the Commonwealth. (4) If 2 or more reductions must be made with respect to an entitlement of a member because 2 or more splitting instruments have been served on the Board, the Board may determine to apply the reductions separately, or in aggregate. (5) If a member has received a draw down benefit under regulation 53-- (a) the superannuation interest of the member will be taken to include the balance of any draw down benefit that is being held under regulation 53(6) and (7); and (b) any entitlement under regulation 53 will be adjusted to take into account the effect of a payment split under this Part. 69--Lump sum not payable to spouse on death of member if split has occurred If a member dies and is survived by a spouse who-- (a) has received, is receiving or is entitled to receive a benefit under a splitting instrument; or (b) is, under the terms of a splitting instrument, not entitled to any amount arising out of the member's superannuation interest under the Act or these regulations (or any proportion of such an interest), the spouse is not entitled to a benefit under the Act or these regulations in respect of the deceased member (except in accordance with the instrument) and will not be considered to be a spouse of the deceased member for the purposes of regulation 74 (if relevant). 70--Board to comply with Commonwealth requirements The Board must comply with the requirements imposed on the Board under Part VIIIB of the Family Law Act 1975 of the Commonwealth. 71--Provision of information In addition to any other information that may be provided by the Board in connection with this Part, the Board may, on application, provide to an eligible person a statement of the value of a superannuation interest of a member spouse, as at a particular date specified in the application. 72--Payment from contribution account in name of non-member spouse If the interest of a spouse (or former spouse) is paid into a contribution account under regulation 67(1)(b), or is rolled over for payment into an account under the Act or these regulations or under the provisions of another Act or of regulations that correspond to this Part, the amount paid into the account will be taken to be a rollover component that may be paid out in accordance with regulation 55(7). 73--Fees (1) The Board may fix fees in respect of matters in relation to which fees may be charged under regulation 59 of the Commonwealth regulations. (2) Any fee under subregulation (1) that is payable by a member spouse or a non-member spouse and has not been paid within 1 month of the amount becoming payable may be deducted by the Board-- (a) if the outstanding fee is payable by a member spouse-- (i) from the member spouse's contribution account; or (ii) from any benefit payable to the member spouse under the Act or these regulations; or (b) if the outstanding fee is payable by a non-member spouse-- (i) from any interest that is to be rolled over or transferred to a fund for the benefit of the non-member spouse; or (ii) from any other benefit payable to the non-member spouse under the Act or these regulations. Part 6--Miscellaneous 73A--Medical information for invalidity and terminal illness benefits (1) For the purposes of assessing whether or not a person is suffering from a terminal illness, the Board may require the person to submit himself or herself for a medical examination by a medical practitioner nominated by the Board. (2) The cost of-- (a) a report obtained from a medical practitioner at the request of the Board for the purposes of determining whether a person is suffering from a terminal illness; or (b) a medical examination to which a person is required to submit under subregulation (1), is to be borne by the Board. (3) The Board may require a person seeking benefits on account of invalidity to provide evidence of his or her incapacity and, for that purpose, may require the person to submit himself or herself for a medical examination by 1 or more medical practitioners nominated by the Board. (4) The cost of any medical examination to which a member is required to submit for the purposes of subregulation (3) is to be borne by the member. 74--Division of benefit where deceased member or spouse member is survived by lawful and putative spouse (1) If a deceased member or spouse member is survived by a lawful spouse and a putative spouse, any benefit to which a surviving spouse is entitled under the Act or these regulations will be divided between them in a ratio determined by reference to the relative length of the periods for which each of them cohabited with the deceased as his or her spouse. (2) If a number of periods of cohabitation are to be aggregated for the purpose of determining an aggregate period of cohabitation for the purpose of subregulation (1), any separate period of cohabitation of less than 3 months will be disregarded. (3) A surviving spouse must, at the request of the Board, furnish it with any information that it requires for the purposes of making a division under subregulation (1).

(5) If-- (a) a deceased member or spouse member is survived by a lawful and a putative spouse; and (b) a benefit is paid to 1 of them on the assumption that he or she is the sole surviving spouse of the deceased, the other spouse has no claim on the benefit insofar as it has been already paid unless that spouse gave the Board notice of his or her claim before the date of payment. 75--Payment in case of death (1) Subject to subregulation (2), if a person to whom a payment is to be made under the Act or these regulations dies, the Board may, in its discretion, make the payment to-- (a) the personal representative of the deceased; or (b) the spouse of the deceased; or (c) the children of the deceased.

(2) A person who was, immediately before the commencement of the amending Act, a supplementary future service benefit member of the scheme is entitled to a level of basic and voluntary invalidity/death insurance the combined value of which will, in the opinion of the Board, give the member invalidity and death insurance equivalent to or greater than the combined level of basic and supplementary insurance that he or she was entitled to immediately before the commencement of the amending Act. (3) A member referred to in subclause (1) may, by application in the approved form, reduce the level of basic invalidity/death insurance to which he or she is entitled under that subclause to the level permitted by these regulations. (4) The entitlement of a person to voluntary invalidity/death insurance under subclause (2) is subject to the same conditions (if any) that his or her entitlement to supplementary future service benefits was subject immediately before the commencement of the amending Act. (5) If a member referred to in subclause (1) had, before the repeal of the Southern State Superannuation Act 1994, reduced the level of basic invalidity/death insurance to which he or she was entitled under that Act-- (a) subclause (1) does not operate in relation to the member; and (b) the member is entitled, on the commencement of this clause, to the level of basic invalidity/death insurance he or she enjoyed immediately before that repeal. 3--Visiting medical officers (1) Subject to this clause, a transferred visiting medical officer is entitled (without being required to undergo a medical examination) to maintain the insurance cover the member enjoyed under the VMO Fund immediately prior to the repeal of the Superannuation (Visiting Medical Officers) Act 1993 (subject to any adjustments that would have occurred from time to time under the terms of that insurance). (2) The insurance cover to which a transferred visiting medical officer is entitled under subclause (1)-- (a) will be in substitution for invalidity/death insurance under Part 3 of these regulations (and that Part will not apply while the insurance cover under subclause (1) is maintained); and (b) will, if the transferred visiting medical officer had attained the age of 60 at the time he or she became a member of the scheme (but had not yet attained the age of 65)-- (i) be available to the member despite the fact that he or she has attained the age of 60; and (ii) continue to be available to the member until he or she attains the age of 65; and (c) will be subject to premiums, determined by the Board, being premiums that do not exceed the premiums the member was paying under the VMO Fund immediately before 1 July 2003. (3) If a transferred visiting medical officer suffers from a medical condition or restriction relevant to the determination of his or her entitlements under the VMO Fund, any insurance cover to which he or she is entitled under subclause (1) may be subject to such authorised conditions as the Board thinks fit to impose. (4) A transferred visiting medical officer may apply to the Board to cancel or vary the insurance cover provided by subclause (1) but, in such a case, the transferred visiting medical officer will then be subject to the operation of Part 3 of these regulations. (5) This clause does not apply in relation to a transferred visiting medical officer who has, before the commencement of this clause, applied to the Board to cancel or vary the insurance cover provided by Schedule 3 Part 1 clause 12(1) of the repealed Act. (6) In this clause-- authorised condition has the same meaning as in regulation 49; transferred visiting medical officer means a visiting medical officer who, immediately before 1 July 2003, was a member of the VMO Fund; VMO Fund means the SAHC Visiting Medical Officers Superannuation Fund established by a trust deed dated 24 February 1983. 4--Transitional arrangement for certain police members (Schedule 1 clause 12) For the purposes of subclause (2)(d) of clause 12 of Schedule 1 of the Act, the benefits to which a police member may be entitled under that subclause on his or her retirement in lieu of benefits under regulation 54 are to be determined in accordance with the following formula: 2009.208.un01.jpg where-- LS is the minimum benefit FS is the member's actual or attributed salary as defined by the Police Superannuation Act 1990 (expressed as an annual amount) X is the number of months (if any) by which the member's age at retirement exceeds 50 years, with a maximum value of 60 Y is the number of months (if any) by which the member's age at retirement exceeds 55 years Pn is-- (a) in the case of a member who was employed on a full-time basis throughout his or her membership of the Police Superannuation Scheme and the Triple S scheme--1; and (b) in any other case-- 2009.208.un02.jpg A is the lesser of the following: (a) unity; (b) 2009.208.un03.jpg M is the number of completed months between the day on which the member commenced service and the day of his or her retirement D is-- (a) if the age of the member at retirement is less than 55--360; (b) if the age of the member at retirement is 55 or greater but less than 60--360 plus Y; (c) if the age of the member at retirement is 60 or greater--420 Pn8 is, for the period of the member's membership of the Police Superannuation Scheme-- (a) in the case of a member who was employed on a full-time basis throughout his or her membership of that Scheme--1; and (b) in any other case--the numerical value arrived at by expressing the member's employment for the period beginning on the day on which he or she became a member of that Scheme and ending on the day immediately before he or she became a member of the Triple S scheme as a proportion of full-time employment during that period M8 is the number of completed months between the day the member commenced service and the day immediately before the day on which he or she became a member of the Triple S scheme PnTS is, for the period of the member's membership of the Triple S scheme-- (a) in the case of a member who was employed on a full-time basis throughout his or her membership of that scheme--1; and (b) in any other case--the numerical value arrived at by expressing the member's employment for the period beginning on the day on which he or she became a member of that scheme and ending on the day of his or her retirement as a proportion of full-time employment during that period. 5--Application for disability pension The following provisions apply in relation to any application for a disability pension made under section 33A of the repealed Act that was not determined by the Board before the repeal of that Act: (a) the application will be taken to have been made under regulation 36; (b) if the application was made by a person who-- (i) was not exempted from the ambit of section 33A of the repealed Act; but (ii) is exempted from the ambit of regulation 36 by virtue of being a casual member (within the meaning of regulation 37), the member will, for the purposes of that application, be taken to have been brought within the ambit of regulation 36 on and from the day on which these regulations come into operation. 6--Restrictions on payment of disability pension for certain members (1) This clause applies to a member (other than a prescribed member within the meaning of Part 3) who-- (a) was not entitled to obtain a benefit in the event of incapacity for work under section 33A of the repealed Act immediately before the repeal of that Act; but (b) would, but for this clause, be entitled to obtain a benefit in the event of incapacity for work under regulation 36 on the commencement of that regulation. (2) Regulation 36 will operate in relation to a member to whom this clause applies on and from, but not before, 31 October 2009. (3) However, if a member to whom this clause applies elects before 31 October 2009, by written notice to the Board, to be exempted from the ambit of regulation 36, the member will be taken to have made an election under regulation 37(1). (4) An election under subclause (3) will take effect from 31 October 2009. (5) A member to whom this clause applies who was employed in employment to which the Act applies for a period of at least 3 months prior to the commencement of the Act is not entitled during the relevant period to a disability pension under regulation 36 in respect of incapacity attributable to a medical condition existing before the day of that commencement. (6) In subclause (5)-- relevant period means the 2 year period commencing on the day on which the Act comes into operation. 7--Continuation of disability pension for certain members Regulation 36(19) does not apply in relation to a disability pension if payment of the pension commenced before the commencement of these regulations. 8--Post retirement investment Funds held under section 47B of the repealed Act will continue as funds held under regulation 45. 9--Conditions of insurance If an application for invalidity or death insurance under the repealed Act was granted on conditions, the conditions continue to apply in relation to the insurance under these regulations unless varied or removed by the Board under regulation 49(5).
