Western Australian Consolidated Acts Western Australian Consolidated Acts (1) On and after the
day on which the Western Australian College of Advanced Education Amendment
Act 1990 comes into operation 1 (in this section referred to as the
commencement day ) the body corporate, consisting of the Council, the members
of the staff and the enrolled students, that was continued in existence under
this Act as if on the coming into operation of this Act it had been
established under this Act by the name of the “Western Australian
College of Advanced Education” is preserved and continues in existence
as a body corporate under and subject to the provisions of this Act to be
called the “Edith Cowan University”, but so that the corporate
identity of the body corporate and its rights and obligations are not affected
by the change in name.
(2) A reference to the
Western Australian College of Advanced Education, whether by use of that name
or a similar or abbreviated form of that name —
(a) in a
written law passed or made before the commencement day;
(b) in
any document or other instrument made, executed, entered into or done before
the commencement day; or
(c) made
before the commencement day in any other manner,
shall be construed as
if it had been amended to be a reference to the Edith Cowan University, unless
because of the context it would be inappropriate to construe the reference in
that manner.
