(1A) This section applies to determinations other than those under section 12(1)(b) or section 12(1)(ba) or section 12B(2).
(1) Subject to subsection (4), every determination shall specify the date on which it expires and shall continue in force at least until the close of that date. The Authority may issue separate determinations, at different times, for the different positions under the jurisdiction of the Authority. The Authority may make a determination before or after the date upon which that determination is to come into force.
(2) No determination, or any part of it, shall come into force earlier than the date of the expiry of the currency of the existing determination being wholly or partially superseded by the first-mentioned determination.
(3) Notwithstanding the expiry of the currency of a determination, it shall continue in force to the extent that it is not superseded by another determination.
(4) Notwithstanding subsection (1), the Authority may at any time while a determination is in force amend that determination—
(a) for the purpose of remedying any defect or removing any ambiguity; or
(b) to deal with any new matter that was not dealt with at the time of the making of the determination; or
(c) if the Authority is satisfied that in all the circumstances there are particular and special reasons that justify a period of less than the term specified in the determination.
(5) Notwithstanding any term included in any determination, the Authority shall review and issue a determination for each position that is subject to its jurisdiction at intervals of not more than 3 years.
