Commonwealth Consolidated Acts Commonwealth Consolidated Acts(1) This Part modifies the Social Security Act and the Social Security Administration Act so that those Acts apply in relation to payments made under this Act.
(2) The modifications apply for the purposes of the following Acts (including any regulations or other legislative instruments made under those Acts):
(a) this Act;
(b) the Social Security Act;
(c) the Social Security Administration Act;
(d) any other Act that refers to the Social Security Act or the Social Security Administration Act.
(3) To avoid doubt, when an Act (the relevant Act ) other than the Social Security Act:
(a) uses an expression that is also used in all or part of the Social Security Act; and
(b) gives the expression the same meaning as in that Act or part; and
(c) the expression is modified by section 93 of this Act;
the expression when used in the relevant Act has the modified meaning.
Example: Subsection 3(2) of the Social Security Administration Act gives expressions used in that Act the same meaning as in the Social Security Act. So, for example, a reference in the Social Security Administration Act to a social security payment is taken, as a result of this Part, to include a reference to farm household allowance, activity supplement, farm financial assessment supplement, FHA supplement and relief payment.
