This Act was originally a Commonwealth ordinance—the Poisons and Dangerous Drugs Ordinance 1933 No 37 (Cwlth).
It was renamed as the Poisons Ordinance 1933 by the Poisons (Amendment) Ordinance 1989, s 5.
This Act was renamed the Poisons Ordinance 1933 by the Poisons (Amendment) Ordinance 1989 No 12, s 5.
The Australian Capital Territory (Self-Government) Act 1988 (Cwlth), s 34 (4) converted most former Commonwealth ordinances in force in the ACT into ACT enactments. This allowed the ACT Legislative Assembly to amend and repeal the laws. This Act was converted into an ACT enactment on 11 May 1989 (self-government day).
As with most ordinances in force in the ACT, the name was changed from Ordinance to Act by the Self-Government (Citation of Laws) Act 1989 No 21, s 5 on 11 May 1989 (self-government day).
Before 11 May 1989, ordinances commenced on their notification day unless otherwise stated (see Seat of Government (Administration) Act 1910 (Cwlth), s 12).
