Thanks!
As posted, your QP membership gets suspended.

Should your status in the future ever not be eligible for complimentary lounge access then your QP membership would be reactivated.

FWIW, in 1996 I achieved top level (as it was then) Gold status and my three months or so QP membership was suspended. Since then I have always been able to maintain a status level that includes complimentary lounge access. About two years ago I achieved Qantas Life time Gold status and unless Qantas decide to remove the benefit of complimentary lounge access for Gold members, I'll never see that three months again.
