Although the ATO website is still saying that it has not become law it now seems that if you are in pension mode you only have to withdraw 50% of the amount you would normally have to withdraw
For verification see
Schedule 7 of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994.
However I suggest before you act on this it would be wise to get written confirmation that the ATO accepts that it has, in fact,become law
