AUSTRALIAN CRIME COMMISSION ACT 2002 - SECT 55D

  (1)   Despite the repeal of section   7 by item   35 of Schedule   1 to the Australian Crime Commission Establishment Act 2002 (the establishment Act ), section   25B of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901 has effect in relation to the amendments made by the establishment Act as if the body known as the National Crime Authority continued in existence with the altered name Australian Crime Commission.

  (2)   If:

  (a)   the National Crime Authority Act 1984 (as in force before the commencement of Schedule   1 to the Australian Crime Commission Establishment Act 2002 ) made provision for a thing to be done, or a matter to be dealt with, by or in relation to the National Crime Authority; and

  (b)   a provision (the corresponding provision ) of the Australian Crime Commission Act 2002 provides for such a thing to be done, or matter to be dealt with, by or in relation to the ACC (whether or not by the same, or a similar, person or body);

then the thing may be done, or matter dealt with, for, or in relation to, the National Crime Authority, under the corresponding provision.
