1.1 Aboriginal Land Rights Act 1983 No 42
[1]    Section 118 Advisory committees

       Part 8        Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions)
                     Act 2007

                                                                               Page 3
                 Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2007

Schedule 1         Minor amendments




                     remuneration to the investigator or administrator that the Council
                     is satisfied is reasonable.
             (2)     An amount paid before the commencement of this clause as
                     remuneration to an investigator or administrator appointed under
                     Part 11, being an amount paid with the approval of the New South
                     Wales Aboriginal Land Council in addition to the remuneration
                     specified in the investigator's or administrator's instrument of
                     appointment, is taken to be and always to have been validly paid

                     result that a provision included in such an instrument that would
                     have been valid had sections 217 (2) and 224 (2) been in force
                     when the instrument was executed is taken to be and always to
                     have been valid.
      Commencement
      Item [2] of the amendments to the Aboriginal Land Rights Act 1983 is taken to have
      commenced on the commencement of Schedule 1 [47] to the Aboriginal Land Rights
      Amendment Act 2006.
      Explanatory note
      Item [1] of the proposed amendments to the Aboriginal Land Rights Act 1983 (the Act)
      inserts a missing word.
      Item [2] of the proposed amendments clarifies that the Chairperson of the New South
      Wales Aboriginal Land Council is to be full-time. Before section 120 of the Act was
      inserted by Schedule 1 [47] to the Aboriginal Land Rights Amendment Act 2006, the
      councillors of the New South Wales Aboriginal Land Council, including the
      Chairperson, were all full-time. The new section 120 (2) provided that the councillors
      were to be full-time but, inadvertently, did not make it clear that the Chairperson (who
      is to be elected from among those councillors) is also to be full-time.
      Items [3] and [4] of the proposed amendments amend provisions of the Act that deal
      with the appointment of investigators and administrators of Aboriginal Land Councils to
      provide that the instrument of appointment of an investigator or administrator may
      include provision for the payment to the investigator or administrator of remuneration
      in addition to that specified in the instrument (for example, provision for the NSW
      Aboriginal Land Council to approve the payment of additional remuneration that the
      Council is satisfied is reasonable).
      Item [5] of the proposed amendments enacts transitional provisions that extend the
      amendments to instruments of appointment executed before the commencement of the
      amendments (existing instruments), validates payments of additional remuneration
      made with the approval of the NSW Aboriginal Land Council and deems existing
      instruments to include a provision enabling the NSW Aboriginal Land Council to
      approve additional remuneration that the Council is satisfied is reasonable.

[2]    Schedule 1, clauses 2 and 3 (4)­(6)

Schedule 1       Minor amendments




      Explanatory note
      In general, the purpose of the proposed amendments to the Companion Animals Act
      1998 (the Act) is to ensure that the provisions of the Act dealing with dangerous dogs
      and restricted dogs are consistent. Some of the amendments also restate existing
      provisions of the Act for the purposes of clarification.
      At present under section 36 of the Act, if the owner of a dog is notified that a council
      officer intends to declare the dog to be dangerous, the owner must comply with certain
      interim control requirements, including ensuring that the dog is kept under effective
      control by means of a chain, cord or leash whenever it is away from the property where
      it is ordinarily kept. Item [1] of the proposed amendments makes it clear that the chain,
      cord or leash must be attached to the dog and held by, or secured to, a competent
      person who has control of the dog when it is away from its property.
      Item [2] of the proposed amendments provides that during the time when the interim
      control requirements under section 36 of the Act apply in respect of a dog that is the
      subject of a proposed dangerous dog declaration, a council officer may seize the dog
      if it is not confined, tethered or restrained in such a way as to prevent it from attacking
      or chasing a person who is lawfully on the property where the dog is ordinarily kept.
      The amendment is consistent with the existing provisions of section 58B of the Act for
      seizing a dog that is subject to a proposed restricted dog declaration. Items [3]­[5] are
      consequential amendments.
      Item [6] of the proposed amendments provides that if a council officer declares a dog
      to be dangerous, the notice advising the owner of the declaration and its consequences
      must indicate that the dog may be seized and destroyed under section 58G of the Act
      if it attacks or bites a person or animal without provocation.
      At present under section 58B of the Act, if the owner of a dog is notified that a council
      officer intends to declare the dog to be a restricted dog, the owner must comply with
      interim control requirements (such as keeping the dog under effective control and
      muzzling it when it is away from its property). Item [7] of the proposed amendments
      requires the owner of the dog to also register the dog under the Act (if it is not already
      registered) within 7 days after receiving the notice. The same requirement currently
      applies under section 36 of the Act in relation to a proposed dangerous dog declaration.
      Items [8]­[11] of the proposed amendments are consequential on the amendment
      made by item [7].
      At present under section 58G of the Act, a council officer may seize a dangerous dog
      or a restricted dog if the dog attacks or bites a person or animal without provocation or
      if certain enclosure and muzzling requirements are not complied with on at least 2
      separate occasions over a 12-month period. However, section 57 (4) of the Act also
      provides for a restricted dog to be seized if any of the control requirements (i.e. not just
      those relating to enclosures and muzzling) under section 56 of the Act are not complied
      with in relation to the dog on any occasion. Item [12] of the proposed amendments
      removes the overlap between sections 58G and 57 (4) of the Act when it comes to
      seizing restricted dogs for non-compliance with the control requirements. Items [13]
      and [14] are consequential amendments.
      Items [15]­[17] of the proposed amendments provide that the existing procedures for
      notifying the owners of seized animals, and for selling or destroying seized animals
      after a certain period, will also apply in relation to animals that come into possession of
      a council pound otherwise than by being surrendered by their owners. In the case of an
      animal that is surrendered to a council pound by its owner, item [18] restates the
      existing provision that enables the council to sell or destroy the animal at any time.

              (1)    An authorised officer may serve a penalty notice on a person if it
                     appears to the officer that the person has committed an offence
                     against this Act or the regulations, being an offence prescribed by
                     the regulations as a penalty notice offence.
              (2)    A penalty notice is a notice to the effect that, if the person served
                     does not wish to have the matter determined by a court, the
                     person can pay, within the time and to the person specified in the
                     notice, the amount of the penalty prescribed by the regulations for
                     the offence if dealt with under this section.
              (3)    A penalty notice may be served personally or by post.
              (4)    If the amount of penalty prescribed for an alleged offence is paid
                     under this section, no person is liable to any further proceedings
                     for the alleged offence.
              (5)    Payment under this section is not to be regarded as an admission
                     of liability for the purpose of, and does not in any way affect or
                     prejudice, any civil claim, action or proceeding arising out of the
                     same occurrence.
              (6)    The regulations may:
                     (a) prescribe an offence for the purposes of this section by
                           specifying the offence or by referring to the provision
                           creating the offence, and
                     (b) prescribe the amount of penalty payable for the offence if
                           dealt with under this section, and
                     (c) prescribe different amounts of penalties for different
                           offences or classes of offences.



                                                                                 Page 13

Schedule 1         Minor amendments




             (7)     The amount of a penalty prescribed under this section for an
                     offence is not to exceed the maximum amount of penalty that
                     could be imposed for the offence by a court.
             (8)     This section does not limit the operation of any other provision
                     of, or made under, this or any other Act relating to proceedings
                     that may be taken in respect of offences.
             (9)     In this section, authorised officer means a person of a class
                     prescribed by the regulations who is authorised in writing by the
                     Director-General as an authorised officer for the purposes of this
                     section.

                           of the Director-General, a person nominated by the

      Omit "appointed members".
      Insert instead "members appointed by the Governor".
      Explanatory note
      Item [1] of the proposed amendments to the Growth Centres (Development

      absence) to be a member of a development corporation if a person other than the
      Director-General has been appointed by the Minister for Planning as the chief
      executive of the development corporation. In cases where a person is not appointed as

       Omit "Marine Safety Act 1998" from section 633 (4C).
       Insert instead "Ports and Maritime Administration Act 1995".
       Explanatory note
       The proposed amendment to the Local Government Act 1993 replaces a reference in
       section 633 (4C) of that Act to a vessel within the meaning of the Marine Safety Act
       1998 with a reference to a vessel within the meaning of the Ports and Maritime
       Administration Act 1995. Both those Acts have a similar definition of vessel. However,
       the amendment will mean that the Minister for Ports and Waterways will be able to
       delegate his or her functions under that subsection to an authorised person. This is
       because section 27 (1) (b) of the Ports and Maritime Administration Act 1995 permits

[3]    Section 20 Annual fee and annual statement
       Omit section 20 (7A) and (7B).
       Explanatory note
       Section 10 (3) (b) of the Motor Dealers Act 1974 (the Act) currently provides that an
       application for the restoration of a licence under the Act may not be made more than
       3 months after the date on which the licence "expires". However, section 19 (1) of the
       Act makes it clear that a licence does not expire, it continues in force until, pursuant to
       the provisions of the Act, it is surrendered or cancelled or ceases to have effect.
       Item [1] of the proposed amendments clarifies the intended effect of section 10 (3) (b)
       by providing that a person may make an application for restoration of a licence under
       section 10 of the Licensing and Registration (Uniform Procedures) Act 2002 only in
       respect of a licence that is cancelled under section 20 (7) of the Act (failure to pay an

       than 3 months after the date on which the licence is cancelled.
       Item [2] of the proposed amendments removes experience as a qualification for a
       director of a corporation that applies for a licence under the Act. Directors are now
       required to have prescribed qualifications or have sufficient knowledge or expertise to
       carry on a business pursuant to the authority that would be conferred by the licence if
       it were granted. This brings this requirement into line with the equivalent requirement
       for a natural person who applies for a licence.
       Item [3] of the proposed amendments omits provisions consequential on the
       amendment made by item [1].

             (1)     The repeal or amendment of any reference to the Australian Road
                     Rules or the Road Transport (Safety and Traffic Management)
                     (Road Rules) Regulation 1999 (or a provision of those Rules or
                     the Regulation) in any Act or statutory rule that is a reference that
                     is (or will become) out of date or otherwise incorrect by reason of
                     the repeal, amendment, renumbering, renaming or remaking of
                     those Rules or the Regulation (or a provision of those Rules or the
                     Regulation).
             (2)     This clause expires on 1 September 2008.
                      Note. The Australian Road Rules were incorporated into the law of New
                      South Wales by clause 6 of the Road Transport (Safety and Traffic
                      Management) (Road Rules) Regulation 1999 on and from 1 December
                      1999. Clause 6 provided that, subject to that Regulation, the Australian
                      Road Rules were to be read with, and as if they formed part of, that
                      Regulation.
      Explanatory note
      Clause 5 of the Road Transport (Safety and Traffic Management) (Road Rules)
      Regulation 1999 (the Regulation) defines the Australian Road Rules to mean that part
      of the publication known as the Australian Road Rules, ISBN 0 7240 8874 1, published
      by the National Road Transport Commission on 19 October 1999 that comprises the
      road rules approved by the Australian Transport Council under the National Road
      Transport Commission Act 1991 of the Commonwealth on 29 January 1999 (together
      with the amendments to those rules approved by the Council on 30 June 1999 and
      11 October 1999).
      This version of the Australian Road Rules is incorporated into the law of New South
      Wales by clause 6 of the Regulation. Clause 6 provides that, subject to that Regulation,
      the Australian Road Rules are to be read with, and as if they formed part of, the
      Regulation.

Minor amendments                                                                 Schedule 1




       The Roads and Traffic Authority is currently undertaking the task of consolidating all of
       the road rules applicable in New South Wales into a single set of Rules. This will
       involve, among other things, the repeal of those provisions of the Regulation that give
       effect to the Australian Road Rules. The intention is for all of the road rules to be set
       out in full instead of being incorporated into the law of New South Wales by reference
       (as is currently the case).
       The amendments that are proposed to be made to the Road Transport (Safety and
       Traffic Management) Act 1999 (the Act) will facilitate this process of consolidation.
       Item [1] of the amendments confirms that regulations made under the Act may apply
       the provisions of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901 of the Commonwealth to the
       interpretation of the Act or the regulations (or instruments made under them) either with
       or without modification.
       Item [2] of the amendments confirms that offences against rules made under the Act
       may be prescribed as public transport lane offences for the purposes of section 57B of
       the Act.
       Item [3] of the amendments enables regulations made under that Act to amend Acts
       and statutory rules for the purpose of updating or omitting references to the Australian
       Road Rules or the Road Transport (Safety and Traffic Management) (Road Rules)
       Regulation 1999. The proposed new road rules regime will render many provisions in
       the New South Wales statute book out of date. The proposed regulation-making power
       will therefore enable these outdated references to be updated or omitted at the same
       time as the new road rules regime commences. The power to make such regulations
       will cease on 1 September 2008.

       The Subordinate Legislation Act 1989 (the Act) provides for the automatic repeal of
       statutory rules. The repeal takes effect on the fifth anniversary of the date on which the
       statutory rule was published (in the case of a statutory rule published on 1 September
       in any year) or on 1 September following the fifth anniversary of the date on which it
       was published (in any other case)--see section 10 (2) of the Act. Unless it is intended

       to allow the statutory rule to lapse, a statutory rule that is due for repeal under the Act
       is usually remade in advance of the repeal date.
       Section 11 of the Act permits the repeal of a statutory rule to be postponed, by order of
       the Governor, for a period of one year. However, the repeal of a particular statutory rule
       cannot be postponed on more than five occasions.
       Items [2] and [3] of the proposed amendments have the effect of keeping the Day
       Procedure Centres Regulation 1996, the Liquor Regulation 1996, the Parking Space
       Levy Regulation 1997, the Private Hospitals Regulation 1996 and the Registered Clubs
       Regulation 1996 in force for a further period of one year after the date on which they
       would otherwise be repealed by the Act. However, any of the Regulations may be
       sooner repealed by other legislation.
       This is necessary as the Regulations have each been postponed on five occasions,
       and are now due to be repealed on 1 September 2007. However, proposed legislative
       reforms involving the repeal and re-enactment of the Private Hospitals and Day
       Procedure Centres Act 1988 and the Liquor Act 1982, and extensive amendments to
       the Registered Clubs Act 1976, resulting from a National Competition Policy review of
       those 3 Acts and the NSW Summit on Alcohol Abuse 2003 will have a substantial
       impact on the matters dealt with by the Regulations made under those 3 Acts. In
       addition, a review is being undertaken of the Parking Space Levy Act 1992 and this is
       likely to result in changes to that Act and the Regulation. In view of these matters, there
       seems little point in remaking the Regulations. On the other hand, it is desirable to keep
       the current regulatory schemes of the Regulations in place until such time as
       replacement provisions come into force under new or revised legislation.
       Item [1] of the proposed amendments repeals a redundant subsection.

                         enactment of the Legal Profession Act
                         2004 No 112

       Explanatory note
       The Legal Profession Act 2004 introduced new terms to distinguish between different
       types of lawyers. In particular, the Act introduced the concept of an Australian lawyer
       (a person who is admitted to the legal profession under the Act or a corresponding law)
       and an Australian legal practitioner (an Australian lawyer who holds a current local
       practising certificate or a current interstate practising certificate). The proposed
       amendments in Schedule 3 replace references in various Acts to a legal practitioner,
       interstate legal practitioner, solicitor, barrister or lawyer with the appropriate term for
       these positions following the enactment of the Legal Profession Act 2004. Currently,
       the meanings of Australian legal practitioner and Australian lawyer are set out in
       section 21 (1) of the Interpretation Act 1987 for ease of reference in other Acts.

  2   indicates repeal of those provisions of an Act that contain only amendments, or
      amendments and repeals, that have commenced or are redundant
  3   indicates repeal of an Act that is redundant
      Explanatory note
      The repeals are explained in detail in the Explanatory note relating to this Act. In
      relation to the repeal of amending Acts, it should be noted that the Acts are repealed
      simply to rationalise the legislation in force and that the repeals have no substantive
      effect on the amendments made by the Acts or any associated provisions. The Acts
      that were amended by the Acts being repealed are up-to-date on the Legislation
      Database maintained by the Parliamentary Counsel's Office and are available
      electronically.
      Section 30 (2) of the Interpretation Act 1987 ensures that, when an Act is amended or
      repealed, no amendment made by the Act is affected. Section 30 (2) of that Act also
      ensures that the following matters are not affected:
       (a)    the proof of any past act or thing,
       (b)    any right, privilege, obligation or liability saved by the operation of the Act,
       (c)    any amendment or validation made by the Act,
       (d)    the operation of any savings or transitional provision contained in the Act.

Schedule 6               General savings, transitional and other
                         provisions

  1    Effect of amendment of amending provisions
       (1)    An amendment made by Schedule 1, 2 or 4 to an amending provision
              contained in an Act is, if the amending provision has commenced before
              the date of assent to this Act, 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 that makes a direct
              amendment to an Act by:
               (a) the repeal or omission of matter contained in the amended Act
                     without the insertion of any matter instead of the repealed or
                     omitted matter, or
              (b) the omission of matter contained in the amended Act and the
                     insertion of matter instead of the omitted matter, or
               (c) the insertion into the amended Act of matter, not being matter
                     inserted instead of matter omitted from the Act.
       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.

  2    Effect 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.




                                                                                    Page 89

Schedule 6       General savings, transitional and other provisions




 3    Application of Interpretation Act 1987 to amendments to statutory rules
             Sections 39, 40 and 41 of the Interpretation Act 1987 do not apply to
             any amendments to statutory rules made by this Act.
      Explanatory note
      This clause makes it clear that certain provisions concerning the making, tabling and
      disallowance of statutory rules do not apply to amendments to statutory rules made by
      the proposed Act.

 4    Effect of amendment on instruments
      (1)    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.
      (2)    The amendment of an instrument by this Act does not prevent its later
             amendment or repeal by another instrument.
      Explanatory note
      Subclause (1) 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.
      Subclause (2) ensures that the amendment of an instrument by the proposed Act does
      not prevent its later amendment or repeal by another instrument.

 5    Regulations
      (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 in the Gazette, 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.
