    1. Legislation history

      This regulation was originally called the Magistrates Court (Civil Jurisdiction) Regulations and was originally made under a Commonwealth ordinance—the Court of Petty Sessions (Civil Jurisdiction) Ordinance 1982 No 54 (Cwlth).

      The Magistrates Court Ordinance 1985 No 67 (Cwlth) renamed the ordinance as the Magistrates Court (Civil Jurisdiction) Ordinance 1982.

      The ACT Self-Government (Consequential Provisions) Act 1988 No 109 (Cwlth), s 12) converted most former Commonwealth ordinances in force in the ACT, and the regulations made under them, into ACT enactments. This allowed the ACT Legislative Assembly to amend and repeal the laws. The Magistrates Court (Civil Jurisdiction) Ordinance 1982 and the Magistrates Court (Civil Jurisdiction) Regulations were converted into ACT enactments on 1 July 1990.

      As with most ordinances in force in the ACT, the name of the ordinance was changed from Ordinance to Act by the Self-Government (Citation of Laws) Act 1989 No 21, s 5 on its conversion to an ACT enactment on 1 July 1990.

      This regulation was renamed under the Legislation Act 2001.

      Before 12 September 2001, regulations commenced on their notification day unless otherwise stated (see Interpretation Act 1967 s 50, Subordinate Laws Act 1989 s 6).
