SCHEDULE 2 – Savings and transitional provisions

(Section 58)

1 Regulations

(1) The regulations may contain provisions of a saving 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 day.
(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 any thing done or omitted to be done before the date of its publication.

2 Certain organisations taken to hold authorities

(1) An organisation which, immediately before the repeal of the Charitable Collections Act 1934 , was registered under that Act as a charity or was exempt from registration under that Act is taken to be the holder of an authority authorising the organisation to conduct any number of fundraising appeals.
(2) Section 19, and the other provisions of this Act, apply to an authority created by the operation of subclause (1).
(3) Subclause (1) ceases to apply to an organisation:
(a) when its authority is revoked under this Act, or
(b) when it alters its constitution in so far as its constitution relates to its charitable objects, or
(c) at the end of a period of 2 years commencing on the repeal of the Charitable Collections Act 1934 ,
whichever happens first.
