Article 9(3) must be interpreted in light of the Agreement's coordinating purpose to ensure equivalence; it requires an assessment of the Australian age pension (which entails the applicant seeking assessment from Australian authorities); because the appellant failed the Australian means test and the Australian age pension payable was nil, she was not entitled to New Zealand superannuation under article 9(3).
