Aged Care and Other Legislation Amendment Act 2025 (45 of 2025)

Schedule 3   Amendments of other Acts

Aged Care (Accommodation Payment Security) Act 2006

24   At the end of subsection 6(3)

Add:

Note: The expressions used in this section have the same meanings as in the Aged Care Act 1997: see section 6A of this Act. Unregulated lump sums cannot be paid under the Aged Care Act 2024, but agreements may still be in force after that Act commences. Unregulated lump sums paid under these agreements may relate to approved providers that are deemed to be registered providers because of the operation of the Aged Care (Consequential and Transitional Provisions) Act 2024 and may therefore form part of an outstanding accommodation payment balance.
