Commentary on provisions of Act Section 6: The Service Civilian Court: power to rectify mistakes
This section introduces a similar power to sections 4 and 5, allowing rules under section 288 of the AFA 2006 in respect of the Service Civilian Court ("SCC rules") to give the court powers to vary or rescind punishments or activation orders in cases where it appears to the court that it has no power to award the punishment or make the order.
	Paragraph (a) inserts a new paragraph (ea) in section 288(3) of the AFA 2006 to enable the SCC rules to include these powers.
	Paragraph (b) inserts a new subsection (6A) in section 288 of the AFA 2006 to allow the SCC rules to include provisions on the commencement of sentences or orders varied by the court.
