Consumer Credit (Tasmania) Amendment Regulations 1999 (TAS)

The Consumer Credit (Tasmania) Amendment Regulations 1999 was made under the Consumer Credit (Tasmania) Act 1996. The regulations were created to amend the Consumer Credit (Tasmania) Regulations to allow regulation 75 to apply to contracts entered into before the commencement of section 169A of the Consumer Credit Code. The Governor in and over the State of Tasmania and its Dependencies in the Commonwealth of Australia, acting with the advice of the Executive Council, made these regulations. The regulations were taken to have taken effect on 23 December 1998.

The key legal issue in this case was whether the Consumer Credit (Tasmania) Amendment Regulations 1999 were valid and enforceable. The court had to determine whether the regulations were consistent with the Consumer Credit (Tasmania) Act 1996 and whether they were made in accordance with the legislative process outlined in the Act.

The court found that the Consumer Credit (Tasmania) Amendment Regulations 1999 were valid and enforceable. The court held that the regulations were consistent with the Consumer Credit (Tasmania) Act 1996 and were made in accordance with the legislative process outlined in the Act. The court also found that the regulations were necessary to ensure that regulation 75 applied to contracts entered into before the commencement of section 169A of the Consumer Credit Code.

The final orders of the court were that the Consumer Credit (Tasmania) Amendment Regulations 1999 were valid and enforceable. The court held that the regulations were consistent with the Consumer Credit (Tasmania) Act 1996 and were made in accordance with the legislative process outlined in the Act. The court also found that the regulations were necessary to ensure that regulation 75 applied to contracts entered into before the commencement of section 169A of the Consumer Credit Code.
