(b) exercising any right or power, performing any obligation or duty or doing any other thing (including under a provision that is itself repealed or amended);in relation to any act done or omitted to be done, any state of affairs existing, or any period ending, before the amendment commences.
70 Saving of provisions about effect of assessments

(ii) interest under the Taxation (Interest on Overpayments and Early Payments) Act 1983 ; and
(b) in a particular case, the period in respect of which the charge or interest is payable (whether under the provision or under the Taxation Administration Act 1953 ) has not begun, or has begun but not ended, when the provision is repealed or amended;then, despite the repeal or amendment, the provision or part continues to apply in the particular case until the end of the period.
72 Repeals disregarded for the purposes of dependent provisions
72
If the operation of a provision (the subject provision ) of any Act or legislative instrument depends to any extent on a provision of an Act, and that provision is repealed by Part 3 of this Schedule, the repeal is disregarded so far as it affects the operation of the subject provision. 73 Division does not limit operation of section 7 of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901
73
This Division does not limit the operation of section 7 of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901 .
The total amount of *exploration credits allocated to entities for an income year by the Commissioner must not exceed the *annual exploration cap for the year. 418-102(2)
The Commissioner must consider applications for *exploration credits from entities for an income year in the order in which the Commissioner receives the applications. 418-102(3)
If the Commissioner receives more than one application at the same time, the Commissioner may decide the order in which the Commissioner considers the applications. 418-102(4)
If the Commissioner would contravene this section by allocating *exploration credits to an entity for an income year of an amount worked out under subsection 418-101(3) then, despite that subsection, the amount of exploration credits allocated to that entity for the income year is to be the difference between the *annual exploration cap for the year and the total amount of exploration credits already allocated to other entities for the year.
