PARLIAMENTARY CONTRIBUTORY SUPERANNUATION ACT 1971 - SECT 18A

18A Acceptance of contributions

(1) Despite any other provision of this Act, deductions from a member’s salary are not required to be made during any period specified by the trustees for which the trustees determine that they must not accept contributions in respect of the member.

(2) The trustees may make such a determination only if they are of the opinion that it is necessary to do so in order to be consistent with a relevant Commonwealth superannuation standard.

(3) A period in respect of which deductions are not made under this section is not to be taken into account when determining the member’s superannuation benefit under section 19.
