(b) by an order made under subsection 90XU(1) or 90YZ(1) of the Family Law Act 1975 ;
the trustee is not in breach of the standard.
Note 1: Subsections 90XL(4) and 90YP(4) of the Family Law Act 1975 provide that while a payment flag is operating on a superannuation interest, the trustee must not make any splittable payment to any person in respect of the interest.
Note 2: Subsections 90XU(1) and 90YZ(1) of the Family Law Act 1975 provide that a court may make an order in relation to a superannuation interest directing the trustee not to make a splittable payment in respect of the interest without the leave of the court.
