        paragraph:



"(a) the House of Representatives is dissolved or expires, or the Parliament

        sub-sections:



"(4) Where an Ordinance is disallowed, or is deemed to have been disallowed,
under this section or becomes void and of no effect by virtue of the operation
of sub-section (1), the disallowance of the Ordinance or the operation of
sub-section (1) in relation to the Ordinance, as the case may be, has the same
effect as a repeal of the Ordinance.



"(4A) Where -

   (a)  an Ordinance (in this sub-section referred to as the 'relevant
        Ordinance') is disallowed, or is deemed to have been disallowed, under
        this section or becomes void and of no effect by virtue of the

   (b)  the relevant Ordinance repealed, in whole or in part, another
        Ordinance that was in force immediately before the relevant Ordinance
        came into operation, the disallowance of the relevant Ordinance or the
        operation of sub-section (1) in relation to the relevant Ordinance, as
        the case may be, has the effect of reviving that other Ordinance from
        and including the date of the disallowance or the date on which the
        relevant Ordinance became void and of no effect by virtue of that
        operation of sub-section (1), as the case may be, as if the relevant
        Ordinance had not been made.



"(4B) A reference in sub-section (4) or (4A) to an Ordinance shall be read as
including a reference to a part of an Ordinance.".
