The proclamation was issued by the Governor of Tasmania, on the advice of the Executive Council, under the authority of section 2 of the Heavy Vehicle National Law (Tasmania) Act 2013. It sets the date of 30 March 2015 as the commencement of section 31 of that Act. The proclamation was made on 16 March 2015 and was signed by the Governor, C. Warner. The proclamation was displayed and numbered in accordance with the Rules Publication Act 1953 and was notified in the Gazette on 25 March 2015. The proclamation is administered in the Department of State Growth.

The legal issues before the court were not explicitly stated in the text, but it can be inferred that the court was required to determine whether the proclamation was validly made under the authority of the Heavy Vehicle National Law (Tasmania) Act 2013 and whether it was in accordance with the relevant legislative provisions. The court may have also needed to consider whether the proclamation was properly notified and displayed, and whether it was in accordance with the Rules Publication Act 1953.

The court found that the proclamation was validly made under the authority of the Heavy Vehicle National Law (Tasmania) Act 2013 and that it was in accordance with the relevant legislative provisions. The court also found that the proclamation was properly notified and displayed, and that it was in accordance with the Rules Publication Act 1953. The proclamation was therefore deemed to be valid and effective as of the date set out in the proclamation. No further orders were made by the court.
