⁴ Under the Local Government Act 1995 Sch. 9.3 cl. 3(2) a reference to a municipality or municipal district under the Local Government Act 1960 may, when the context requires, be read as if it had been amended to include or be a reference to a local government or local government district under the Local Government Act 1995. This reference was changed under the Reprints Act 1984 s. 7(5)(a).

⁵ Now known as the Road Traffic (Licensing) Regulations 1975; citation changed (see note under r. 1).

⁶ The Miscellaneous Regulations (Validation) Act 1985 applied to these regulations. It deems the regulations not to have ceased to have effect as a result of the failure to comply with section 42(1) of the Interpretation Act 1984, subject to their being laid before the Legislative Assembly. The Interpretation Act 1984 s. 42(2) then applied as if the words “or if any regulations are not laid before both Houses of Parliament in accordance with subsection (1)” had been omitted.

⁷ The Road Traffic (Licensing) Amendment Regulations 1996 r. 15 is a transitional provision of no further effect.

⁸ The Road Traffic (Licensing) Amendment Regulations (No. 3) 1996 r. 6 is a transitional provision of no further effect.

⁹ Disallowance of the Road Traffic (Licensing) Amendment Regulations (No. 2) 1997 r. 3(a) on 26 Aug 1997 in Gazette 2 Sep 1997 p. 5001 has no effect as the relevant provision was subsequently amended prior to disallowance.

¹⁰ The Road Traffic (Licensing) Amendment Regulations (No. 3) 2000 r. 6 reads as follows:

“
6. Transitional

A licence for a vehicle of a class described in the portion of the Table deleted by regulation 5(4) is to be taken to be a licence for the appropriate class of vehicle described in the portion of the Table inserted by that regulation.

”.
