Compensation Court Repeal (Transitional) Amendment Regulation 2004 (NSW)

2004 No 349

New South Wales

Compensation Court Repeal

(Transitional) Amendment

Regulation 2004

under the

Compensation Court Repeal Act 2002

Her Excellency the Governor, with the advice of the Executive Council, has made the following Regulation under the Compensation Court Repeal Act 2002.

BOB DEBUS, M.P.,

Attorney General

Explanatory note

The Compensation Court Repeal Act 2002 abolished the Compensation Court and transferred certain proceedings instituted and pending in the Court immediately before that abolition to the District Court. Clause 8 of the Compensation Court Repeal (Transitional) Regulation 2003 describes the powers of the District Court in such proceedings. The clause will be superseded if the Courts Legislation Amendment Bill 2004 (which is currently before Parliament and contains certain amendments to the District Court Act 1973 relating to the jurisdiction acquired by the District Court on the abolition) is enacted.

Clause 8 currently ceases to have effect on 30 June 2004. The object of this Regulation is to extend the operation of the clause to the date of enactment of the amendments or 31 December 2004, whichever first occurs.

This Regulation is made under the Compensation Court Repeal Act 2002, including section 11 (the power to make regulations containing provisions of a savings or transitional nature consequent on the enactment of that Act).
