General provisions

10: Comparative tables of old and new provisions

You could also call this:

"What's changed: old laws compared to new laws in the Social Security Act 2018."

When you look at the Social Security Act 2018, you will see a Schedule 12 that compares old and new provisions. This schedule helps you see what has changed between the old laws and the new ones. It looks at the Social Security Act 1964 and the Social Welfare (Reciprocity Agreements, and New Zealand Artificial Limb Service) Act 1990 to show you what is different.

The Schedule 12 has three parts: Part A, Part B, and Part C. Part A looks at each provision in the Social Security Act 1964 and tells you what the corresponding provision is in the new law or the Residential Care and Disability Support Services Act 2018. Part B does the same thing for the Social Welfare (Reciprocity Agreements, and New Zealand Artificial Limb Service) Act 1990 and the Artificial Limb Service Act 2018. Part C lists each provision in the new law and tells you what the corresponding provision is in the old laws, or if it is a new provision.

You can use the Schedule 12 to help you understand the changes between the old and new laws. However, it is not a definitive guide, so you should not rely solely on it to understand the correspondence of provisions.
