(1) The Governor may, by proclamation published on the NSW legislation
website, revoke the repeal of an Act or instrument if the revocation of the
repeal is authorised by this section. In that case, the Act or instrument is
taken not to be, and never to have been, repealed.
(2) The revocation of the
repeal of an Act or instrument is authorised only if, at the time of the
repeal, the Act or instrument effecting the repeal--
(a) stated that this
section applied to the repeal or otherwise authorised the Governor to revoke
the repeal, or
(b) described the repeal (in a heading or otherwise) as the
repeal of redundant, spent or unnecessary Acts or instruments.
(3) The
revocation of the repeal of an Act or instrument under this section 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 revocation of the repeal, 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 revocation of the repeal.
