3     Legislation history

These regulations were originally called the Fire Brigade Regulations and were originally made under a Commonwealth ordinance—the Fire Brigades Ordinance 1957 No 20 (Cwlth).

The Australian Capital Territory (Self-Government) Act 1988 (Cwlth), s 34 (4) converted most former Commonwealth ordinances in force in the ACT, and the regulations made under them, into ACT enactments. This allowed the ACT Legislative Assembly to amend and repeal the laws. The Fire Brigades Ordinance 1957 and the Fire Brigade Regulations were converted into ACT enactments on 11 May 1989 (self-government day).

As with most ordinances in force in the ACT, the name of the ordinance 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).

These regulations were renamed as the Fire Brigade Regulations 1958 by the Legislation Act 2001.

Before 11 May 1989, regulations commenced on their notification day unless otherwise stated (see Interpretation Ordinance 1937 s 16, Interpretation Act 1967 s 50).

Editorial changes

The Legislation Act 2001, part 11.3 authorises the Parliamentary Counsel to make editorial amendments and other changes of a formal nature when preparing a law for republication. Editorial changes do not change the effect of the law, but have effect as if they had been made by an Act commencing on the republication date (see Legislation Act 2001, s 115 and s 117). The changes are made if the Parliamentary Counsel considers they are desirable to bring the law into line, or more closely into line, with current legislative drafting practice.

This republication does not include amendments made under part 11.3 (see endnote 1).
