The person in question gave casual and intermittent service which was non-pensionable up until recently. However arising from recently introduced improvements in superannuation, the details of which are being finalized at present, it will be possible for the person to reckon the service for superannuation purposes subject to payment of certain contributions. As an interim measure, and pending the finalization of the detailed arrangements, my Department is processing the person's retirement benefits and expects to issue benefits shortly to her. When all the details of the improvements are finalized the person's benefits will, if necessary, be revised.
