              <p>Example:	Under the old law, the <b><i>notional productivity amount</i></b> under subsection 128(8) of the <i>Superannuation Act 1976</i> is worked out by reference to so much of a person’s earnings as are relevant for establishing whether an employer incurred an individual superannuation guarantee shortfall in relation to the person.

              <p>Note:	Assume regulations or other instruments can be made for a provision of the old law. If that provision of the old law continues to apply because of this item, then any regulations or instruments made for that provision will also continue to apply (and can continue to be made) for any of the matters in paragraphs (a) to (g).</p>
