Statute Law Amendment Act 2005 (ACT)

The Statute Law Amendment Act 2005 (ACT) was passed by the Legislative Assembly of the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) on 3 May 2005 and notified on 12 May 2005. This Act amends various pieces of legislation to improve the quality of the statute law of the Territory through statute law revision. The court was not required to decide any legal issues in this case, as the Act is primarily a technical revision of existing laws. However, the amendments made by the Act include changes to the Dangerous Substances Act 2004, Domestic Animals Act 2000, Occupational Health and Safety Act 1989, and Road Transport (General) Act 1999, among others. These changes aim to clarify and streamline the legislation, making it more accessible and easier to understand for those who need to refer to or apply the laws.
