21   Transitional - service's application day happens after the period for which child care rebate is applicable

(1) This item applies if:

(b) the service's application day (within the meaning of item 91 of Schedule 1 to the Family Assistance Legislation Amendment (Child Care Management System and Other Measures) Act 2007) has not happened before the last week that falls wholly or partly in that period.

(2) The Family Assistance Act has effect in relation to that care as if subsection 84DB(3) of that Act were as follows:

If fee reduction applies, count unreduced amount of fees

(3) If fees for child care by an approved child care service have been reduced under Division 1 of Part 8A of the Family Assistance Administration Act, then for the purposes of this section, a reference to the fees for which:
