Reg 6.55 is from the Transport Security Regulations, not the Civil Aviation Regulations.
A flight crew licence is a security designated authorisation (see regulation 1.08 and section 74G of the Act).
(2) Subject to subregulation (4), a person who is over 18, and holds a security designated authorisation, must not perform a duty that is essential to the operation of an aircraft while the aircraft is in Australian territory unless:
(a) his or her aviation security status check is current; or
(b) he or she has requested an aviation security status check.
