Acts and Instruments (Framework Reform) Act 2015 (10 of 2015)

Schedule 1   Acts, legislative instruments and notifiable instruments

Part 7   Application, savings and transitional

171   Application of amendments to instruments - general

Paragraph 11(2)(a) of the Legislation Act 2003, as that Act is amended by this Schedule, applies in relation to a commencement instrument made on or after the commencement of this Schedule.

Note: Paragraph 11(2)(a) of that Act provides that commencement instruments are notifiable instruments. A Proclamation that provides solely for the commencement of an Act or a provision of an Act is an example of a “commencement instrument”.

Under paragraph 6(e) of the Legislative Instruments Act 2003, Proclamations made before the commencement of this Schedule were declared to be legislative instruments (though commencement Proclamations were not subject to disallowance: see the table in subsection 44(2) of that Act).
