Section 83 — Paid Parental Leave Act 2010: Guide to this Part

This Part is about the payment of instalments to a person by the Secretary. The Secretary is required to pay instalments directly to a person if: (a) an employer determination is never made for the person; or (b) the instalment is payable in relation to a day that is a flexible PPL day for a child of the person and that does not fall within the person’s continuous flexible period for the child (if any). The Secretary is also required to pay instalments directly to a person in certain circumstances where an employer determination is being reviewed or has been revoked, or where a matter has been referred to the Fair Work Ombudsman relating to a failure by an employer to pay an instalment to a person. In certain circumstances where the Secretary becomes required to pay instalments to a person, the Secretary is also required to pay the person arrears for instalments that had previously become payable, but not been paid, to the person.
