Plant Diseases Regulations 1938 (ACT)

The Plant Diseases Regulations 1938 were repealed by the Plant Diseases Act 2002. The court was required to consider the validity of the repeal, and whether the new legislation adequately replaced the repealed regulations. The court found that the new legislation did adequately replace the repealed regulations, and that the repeal was therefore valid. The court also considered whether the new legislation was consistent with the repealed regulations, and found that it was. The final order of the court was that the repeal was valid, and that the new legislation was consistent with the repealed regulations.
