	Subsection (4) specifies the term of a Temporary JC.
	Subsection (5) sets out who the IPC must notify when a new Temporary JC is appointed.
	Subsection (6) clarifies that a reference in any enactment is to be read (so far as context allows) as referring also to a Temporary JC.
	Subsection (7) specifies that certain provisions relating to the appointment of JCs, under section 227 and 228 IPA 2016, are disapplied in relation to the appointment of Temporary JCs.

	Subsection (8) clarifies that in section 228A, the term "Judicial Commissioner functions" means the functions conferred on JCs by any enactment (including the IPA 2016).
