Plain-language summary
Written by a model from the explanatory memorandum; not the record, as at 2015-05-28.
The bill would remove the duty for employers to offer a superannuation fund choice to temporary residents and when funds merge.
Employers would no longer need to give a standard choice form to temporary visa holders or when an employee’s super benefits transfer to a successor fund after a merger.
The government says employee entitlements to super contributions and their ability to choose a fund would not be affected.
- Removes the obligation to offer a choice of super fund to temporary residents.
- Removes the obligation to offer a choice of super fund when super funds merge.

Employers, temporary residents, and employees whose super funds merge.
