1Effect of amendment of
amending provisions
(1)
An amendment made by Schedule 1, 2 or 3 to an
amending provision contained in an Act or instrument is, if the amending
provision has commenced before the Schedule 1, 2 or 3 amendment concerned,
taken to have effect as from the commencement of the amending provision
(whether or not the amending provision has been
repealed).
(2)
In this clause:
amending
provision means a provision of an Act or instrument that
makes a direct amendment to an Act or instrument by:
(a)
the repeal or omission of matter contained in the
amended Act or instrument without the insertion of any matter instead of the
repealed or omitted matter, or
(b)
the omission of matter contained in the amended
Act or instrument and the insertion of matter instead of the omitted matter,
or
(c)
the insertion into the amended Act or instrument
of matter, not being matter inserted instead of matter omitted from the Act or
instrument.
Explanatory
note
This clause ensures that certain amendments,
including amendments correcting errors in technical provisions (for example,
headings indicating the section to be amended or directions as to where a new
section is to be inserted) and rectifying minor drafting errors (for example,
corrections in numbering of provisions, correction or insertion of
cross-references, omission of unnecessary matter or insertion of omitted
matter), will be taken to have commenced on the date the amendments to which
they relate commenced.
2Effect of amendment or repeal
on acts done or decisions made
Except where it is expressly provided to the
contrary, if this Act:
(a)
amends a provision of an Act or an instrument,
or
(b)
repeals and re-enacts (with or without
modification) a provision of an Act or an
instrument,
any act done or decision made under the provision
amended or repealed has effect after the amendment or repeal as if it had been
done or made under the provision as so amended or repealed.
Explanatory
note
This clause ensures that the amendment or repeal
of a provision will not, unless expressly provided, vitiate any act done or
decision made under the provision as in force before the amendment or
repeal.
3Effect of amendment on
instruments
Except where expressly provided to the contrary,
any instrument made under an Act amended by this Act, that is in force
immediately before the commencement of the amendment, is taken to have been
made under the Act as amended.
Explanatory
note
This clause ensures that, unless expressly
provided, any instrument that is in force and made under a provision of an Act
that is amended or substituted by the proposed Act will be taken to have been
made under the Act as amended.
4Revocation of
repeal
Section 29A of the Interpretation Act 1987 applies to the
repeal of Acts or instruments by this Act.
Explanatory
note
The effect of this clause is to enable the
Governor, by proclamation, to revoke the repeal of any Act or instrument or
the provision of any Act or instrument repealed by this Act. The Act or
instrument or provision of an Act or instrument the subject of the revocation
of repeal is taken not to be, and never to have been,
repealed.
5Regulations
(1)
The Governor may make regulations containing
provisions of a savings or transitional nature consequent on the enactment of
this Act.
(2)
Any such provision may, if the regulations so
provide, take effect from the date of assent to this Act or a later
date.
(3)
To the extent to which any such provision takes
effect from a date that is earlier than the date of its publication on the NSW
legislation website, the provision does not operate so as:
(a)
to affect, in a manner prejudicial to any person
(other than the State or an authority of the State), the rights of that person
existing before the date of its publication, or
(b)
to impose liabilities on any person (other than
the State or an authority of the State) in respect of anything done or omitted
to be done before the date of its publication.
Explanatory
note
This clause enables the making of regulations of
a savings or transitional nature having a short term effect and relating to
incidental matters arising out of the proposed Act with regard to which no
specific, or sufficient, provision has been made in the proposed
Act.
