If a modification is to replace or insert a definition, the new definition is identified by the superscript 1M appearing after the defined term.

3 Repealed by the Mining Act 1978.

4 Repealed by the Land Administration Act 1997.

5 The Machinery of Government (Miscellaneous Amendments) Act 2006 Pt. 11 Div. 2 reads as follows:


Division 2 — Transitional provisions

350. Aboriginal Affairs Planning Authority Act 1972

(1) A thing done or omitted to be done by, to or in relation to the Commissioner before commencement has the same effect after commencement, to the extent that it has any force or significance after commencement, as if it had been done or omitted by, to or in relation to the CEO.

(2) Section 35(5) of the Aboriginal Affairs Planning Authority Act 1972 (as in force before commencement) continues to apply in relation to things done or omitted to be done before commencement by the Director-General of the department established under section 4 of the Community Services Act 1972 (as in force immediately before commencement).

(3) In this section —

CEO has the meaning given by section 4 of the Aboriginal Affairs Planning Authority Act 1972 as in force after commencement;

commencement means the time at which section 342 comes into operation;

Commissioner has the meaning given to “Commissioner for Aboriginal Affairs” by section 10 of the Aboriginal Affairs Planning Authority Act 1972 as in force before commencement.


6 The requirement to appoint a Commissioner for Aboriginal Planning was removed from the Act and references to the Commissioner were replaced by references to the CEO, see the Machinery of Government (Miscellaneous Amendments) Act 2006 Pt. 11 Div. 1. Section 454 of that Act is a general transitional provision that applies to references to the Commissioner in written laws.

7 The amendment to s. 10(2) in the Financial Legislation Amendment and Repeal Act 2006 Sch. 1 cl. 1 (now known as the Financial Management (Transitional Provisions) Act 2006) is not included because the section it sought to amend was repealed by the Machinery of Government (Miscellaneous Amendments) Act 2006 s. 344.
