6.5.45 Purpose
'Ceasing continuous full-time service' includes all forms of discharge. This includes on retirement, retrenchment, and on completing a period of engagement. Note that Division 1 section 6.5.5 prevents some members who cease continuous full-time service from having a removal benefit.
6.5.45A Member this Division applies to
6.5.46 Removal on ceasing continuous full-time service
For table item 2: The member must provide the relevant documents to the CDF.
6.5.46A Additional removal for members who have unaccompanied resident family
6.5.47 Removal if service continues after intended date of ceasing
If the member remains in service and moves to another location leaving their family behind, the family’s location does not become a family benefit location if they had received a removal under section 6.5.46A. This means that housing assistance is not available to the family in the location they moved to.
Example: A member's Service location is Melbourne and is removed to Perth in advance of ceasing continuous full-time service. The member continues to serve past their expected date of ceasing. They are then posted to Sydney. They are eligible for a removal only to the value of a removal from Melbourne to Sydney.
