Explanatory note

The object of this proclamation is to commence the uncommenced provisions of the Crimes Legislation Amendment (Sentencing) Act 1999. The uncommenced provisions comprise the long title of the Act and Schedule 1 to the Act (to the extent to which it repeals the Forfeited Recognizances and Bail Act 1954). The making of this proclamation is consequential on the commencement of the Criminal Procedure Legislation Amendment (Bail Agreements) Act 1998, which abolishes certain recognizances and establishes a new scheme for the enforcement of bail agreements.
