The Port Corporation may, with the written approval of the Minister, provide facilities or services or conduct businesses, other than those provided or conducted under section 10, that are complementary to the Port Corporation’s—
(a) principal objectives, or
(b) principal functions.
The Minister may approve the provision of the facility or service, or the conduct of the business, by the Port Corporation only if the Minister is satisfied the provision of the facility or service, or the conduct of the business, by the Port Corporation is complementary to, and will not detract from, the Port Corporation’s principal objectives or principal functions.

The Minister may, at any time by written notice given to the Port Corporation, do any of the following—
(a) impose conditions on an approval,

The charge is payable—
(a) in the case of cargo that is unloaded at the facility—by the person who, immediately after it is unloaded, is the owner of the cargo, and
(b) in the case of cargo that is loaded at the facility—by the person who, immediately before it is loaded, is the owner of the cargo.

See clause 23 of Schedule 5 for the operational commencement of the amendments to this section by the Ports Assets (Authorised Transactions) Act 2012.
Charges cease to be payable under this Division on a day or days to be appointed by proclamation.
Without limiting subsection (1), different days may be appointed in respect of charges payable to different relevant port authorities or in respect of different charges or other circumstances.
A proclamation under this section may be varied by a subsequent proclamation (whether before or after the day appointed by the original proclamation).
Any liability incurred under this Division before a charge ceases to be payable is not affected and the provisions of this Part continue to apply to that liability.
The fact that charges cease to be payable under this Division does not prevent commercial arrangements from being made for the payment of charges for services provided after that time.

The wharfage charges concerned are payable even though the demand for payment is made after the commencement of this clause.
A security lodged under section 20 of the Marine Port Charges Act 1989 by a person liable to pay a charge under that Act is taken to be a security lodged under section 71 of this Act.
Without limiting the operation of any saving contained in the Interpretation Act 1987, nothing in this Act affects the liability of any person to pay any rate or charge incurred under the Marine Port Charges Act 1989.

The Marine Port Charges Regulation 1990 made under the Marine Port Charges Act 1989 is (to the extent that it can lawfully be made under this Act) taken to be a regulation made under this Act (see section 76). A reference in that regulation to the MSB is taken to be a reference to the relevant port authority within the meaning of Part 5 of this Act.
The Ports Boundaries Regulation 1978 made under the Maritime Services Act 1935 is (to the extent that it can lawfully be made under this Act) taken to be a regulation made under this Act (see section 105).
A person who, immediately before the repeal of section 36A of the Maritime Services Act 1935, was duly appointed as a harbour master, or to act in the capacity of a harbour master, under the marine legislation is taken to have been so appointed under Part 7 of this Act.
Anything done under an Act, provision of an Act or regulation repealed by this Act that has any force or effect immediately before its repeal, is taken to have been done under the corresponding provision of this Act.
Anything done by the MSB under a provision of the marine legislation that is amended by this Act (being an amendment that changes references to the MSB with references to the Minister) and that has any force or effect immediately before its amendment is (subject to this Act) taken to have been done by the Minister.
An operating licence in force immediately before the amendment of section 12 by the Ports Corporatisation and Waterways Management Amendment Act 2006 is taken to have been issued under that section as so amended.

(b) a permit, authorisation, approval or notice granted, given or issued under the Rivers and Foreshores Improvement Act 1948.

(a) there was no statutory authority for the delegation, or
(b) the relevant instrument was not granted, given or issued in the name of the Minister, or
(c) the relevant instrument was granted, given or issued by a member of staff of the maritime agency.
In this Part—
The Maritime Authority of NSW is abolished.

The Maritime Authority of NSW Division of the Government Service is abolished as a Division of the Government Service.
A person who was employed in the Maritime Authority of NSW Division immediately before the abolition of that Division becomes employed in the Roads and Maritime Services Division of the Government Service on the commencement of this clause.
The terms and conditions on which a person becomes employed in the Roads and Maritime Services Division under this clause (including terms and conditions as to remuneration, allowances and duration of employment) are, until such time as provision is otherwise made under this Act or any other law, those on which the person was employed immediately before the commencement of this clause.
Division 4 of Part 7 of the Transport Administration Act 1988applies in relation to persons who become employed in the Roads and Maritime Services Division under this clause in the same way as that Division applies to persons who are transferred under that Division.
The Minister may, by order in writing, provide that such members of staff of the Roads and Maritime Services Division as are employed at the ports of Yamba and Eden and as are specified or described in the order are transferred to a Port Corporation specified in the order.
A person who is the subject of an order under this clause becomes an employee of the specified Port Corporation, in accordance with the terms of the order, on the day the order takes effect.
A person whose employment is transferred to a Port Corporation under this clause is not entitled to receive any payment or other benefit merely because the person ceases to be a member of the staff of the Roads and Maritime Services Division and is not entitled to claim, both under this Act and under any other Act, dual benefits of the same kind for the same period of service.
For the purposes of this clause,
In this Part—
The operation of the following provisions is delayed until operational commencement—
(a) Part 6 (Price monitoring scheme) of this Act,
(b) the amendments made to sections 51, 54, 62, 67 and 74 by the Ports Assets (Authorised Transactions) Act 2012 (to remove the requirement for the approval of the Minister under those sections),
(c) such other amendments made to this Act by the Ports Assets (Authorised Transactions) Act 2012 as the Treasurer may direct by order in writing made before operational commencement.
For the purposes of this clause,
Until settlement day, Part 3A (Private ports), Part 5 (Port charges) and Part 6 (Price monitoring scheme) of this Act operate in respect of a private port as if the relevant port corporation for the port were the port operator of the port.
Accordingly, the relevant port corporation has and may exercise all the functions of the port operator of a private port under those Parts until settlement day.
Section 12 (Exercise of port SOC functions through subsidiaries) of the Ports Assets (Authorised Transactions) Act 2012 extends to any such function.
For the purposes of the operation of Part 3A of this Act under this clause, the
(a) land at the port that is not covered by water and that comprises ports assets under the Ports Assets (Authorised Transactions) Act 2012, and
(b) any wharf or other structure built at the port on or over land covered by water that is adjacent to land referred to in paragraph (a).
For the purposes of the operation of Part 5 of this Act under this clause, a site at a port leased to a subsidiary of the relevant port corporation for the port is deemed to be leased to that port corporation.
A designation by the Minister under previous section 47(1), definition of
(a) continues in effect, and
(b) is taken to have been made under section 48A.
