3 Trust not to manage trust land until lease terminated

Despite its objects and principal functions, the Trust shall not, until the continued lease is terminated, exercise any of its functions inconsistently with the functions under the lease of the former manager.

4 Saving of contracts etc

(1) From the time when the continued lease ceases to have effect, any contract, agreement or undertaking entered into with the former manager in connection with its occupation of the trust land and in force immediately before that time shall be treated as a contract, agreement or undertaking entered into with the Trust.

5 Preservation of rights of existing staff at Cumberland Oval

(1) In this clause:
"employee of the former manager" means a person who, at the time the continued lease ceases to have effect, was employed by the former manager (otherwise than on a temporary or casual basis) and whose principal place of work at that time was the trust land.
"superannuation scheme" means a scheme, fund or arrangement under which any superannuation or retirement benefits are provided and which is established by or under any Act.
(2) Every employee of the former manager shall, at the time when the continued lease ceases to have effect, become an employee of the Trust on the same terms and conditions (including terms and conditions as to remuneration and duration of appointment) as those on which he or she was employed immediately before that time.
(3) An employee of the former manager:
(a) shall retain any rights accrued or accruing to him or her as such an employee, and
(b) may continue to contribute to any superannuation scheme to which he or she was a contributor immediately before becoming an employee of the Trust, and
(c) is entitled to receive any deferred or extended leave and any payment, pension or gratuity,
as if he or she had continued to be an employee of the former manager during his or her service as an employee of the Trust.
(4) Service as an employee of the Trust shall be regarded as service as an employee of the former manager for the purposes of any law under which those rights accrued or were accruing, under which he or she continues to contribute or by which that entitlement is conferred.
(5) A person who becomes an employee of the Trust because of the operation of subclause (2) shall be regarded as an employee of the former manager, and the Trust shall be regarded as the employer, for the purposes of the superannuation scheme to which he or she is entitled to contribute under this clause.
(6) If an employee of the former manager would, but for this subclause, be entitled under subclause (3) to contribute to a superannuation scheme or to receive any payment, pension or gratuity under the scheme:
(a) he or she is not so entitled on becoming a contributor to any other superannuation scheme, and
(b) the provisions of subclause (5) cease to apply to or in respect of him or her and the Trust in any case where he or she becomes a contributor to any such other superannuation scheme.
(7) Subclause (6) does not prevent the payment to an employee of the former manager (on his or her ceasing to be a contributor to a superannuation scheme) of such amount as would have been payable to him or her if he or she had ceased, because of resignation, to be such a contributor.
(8) An employee of the former manager is not, in respect of the same period of service, entitled to dual benefits of the same kind through the operation of this clause.

(3) To the extent to which any such provision takes effect from a date that is earlier than the date of its publication in the Gazette, the provision does not operate so as:
(a) to affect, in a manner prejudicial to any person (other than the State or an authority of the State), the rights of that person existing before the date of its publication, or
(b) to impose liabilities on any person (other than the State or an authority of the State) in respect of anything done or omitted to be done before the date of its publication.
