Superannuation Management Guidelines 2011
Disallowable instrument DI2011–169
made under the
Superannuation Provision Protection Act 2000, s16 (Guideline-making power)
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Outline
These guidelines are issued in accordance with section 16 of the Superannuation Provision Protection Act 2000 (the Act).
The ACT Government has chosen to establish a single agency, of nine directorates as the administrative basis of the ACT Public Service to commence on 1 July 2011.  The single agency model will report to a single Chief Executive through nine directorates, each headed by a Director-General.
As a result the Act has been amended to reflect the single agency structure by:

•	substituting all references to ‘department’ with ‘directorate’; and
•	substituting all references to ‘chief executives’ of departments with ‘directors‑general’.

As the Act is being technically amended to include the above changes, this Guideline has also been technically amended.
This instrument applies from the financial year commencing 1 July 2011.
Technical Amendment
Clauses 1 and 2 are formal requirements.  They refer to the name and the commencement date.
Clauses 12, 13 and 14 references to chief executives changed to director-generals in line with the amendments to the Act.
Clause 15 revokes the Superannuation Management Guidelines 2002, which is replaced by provisions made under this guideline.
