Poisons Regulation 1933 (ACT)

The Poisons Regulation 1933 was a regulation made under the Poisons Act 1933 in the Australian Capital Territory. It was repealed by the Medicines, Poisons and Therapeutic Goods Act 2008, effective from 14 February 2009. The regulation contained various provisions related to the sale, dispensing, and record-keeping of biological preparations, restricted substances, and pseudoephedrine, a substance used in the production of certain illicit drugs. The regulation also outlined penalties for non-compliance.

The court was not required to decide any legal issues in this case, as it was a republication of the repealed Poisons Regulation 1933. The regulation was prepared by the ACT Parliamentary Counsel's Office and included editorial changes to bring it into line with current legislative drafting practice. It also included amendments made under the Legislation Act 2001, part 11.3 (Editorial changes). The regulation's legal status and the status of its amendments can be found in the endnotes.

The court's reasoning and outcome are not applicable in this case, as there was no legal dispute or court decision to be summarised. The republication of the Poisons Regulation 1933 serves as an authoritative version of the repealed regulation, including any amendments made under the Legislation Act 2001, part 11.3 (Editorial changes) and the commencement, amendment, repeal, or expiry affecting the republished law to 14 February 2009. The legislation history and amendment history of the republished law are set out in endnotes 3 and 4.
