Section 75 — Paid Parental Leave Act 2010: Payment of PPL funding amounts

(1) The Secretary must pay one or more amounts (the PPL funding amounts) to a person’s employer if the Secretary is satisfied that: (a) an instalment was or is likely to be payable to the person; and (b) the employer is or is likely to be required to pay the instalment to the person. Note: Subsections 72(1) and (1A) deal with when an employer is required to pay an instalment to a person. (2) Subsection (1) does not require the Secretary to pay a PPL funding amount in relation to an instalment earlier than a reasonable period before the payroll cut-off for the instalment. (3) If: (a) the Secretary is required under subsection (1) to pay a PPL funding amount to a person’s employer in relation to an instalment for the person; and (b) the employer has not been paid enough to fund the instalment as at the first payroll cut-off for an instalment for the person after the Secretary becomes required to pay the PPL funding amount; the Secretary must pay the PPL funding amount to the employer before the next payroll cut-off for an instalment for the person.
