About this source
This feed tracks every Australian federal legislative instrument registered on the Federal Register of Legislation in the last 7 days. Legislative instruments are how Australian federal regulators (ASIC, APRA, ACCC, the TGA, AUSTRAC, the ATO, and dozens of departmental delegates) actually make and amend rules between Acts of Parliament. Around 220 instruments a month, ranging from narrow scarcity declarations to scheme-wide rule rewrites. GovPing publishes each as soon as it lands on legislation.gov.au. Watch this if you advise on Australian financial services, therapeutic goods, AML, consumer credit, or any sector where the substantive rules live in delegated legislation rather than primary statute. Recent: an ASIC instrument on serviced apartment schemes, a TGA scarcity declaration on clonidine.
What changed
This legislative instrument establishes the criteria and classifications for determining what constitutes non-warlike service under the Military Rehabilitation and Compensation Act 2004. The determination, filed as F2019L00332 with the latest compilation F2026C00322 effective 09 April 2026, includes provisions in Section 6 and Schedule 1 specifying the activities that qualify as non-warlike service.
Current and former Australian Defence Force members, veterans, and their dependents who may be eligible for rehabilitation and compensation benefits under the MRCA should review this determination to understand what service activities are classified as non-warlike service. Administrative and support staff within the DVA claims assessment process should ensure alignment with the current version when processing compensation applications.
