13 Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) (No. 2) No. 87, 1994 SCHEDULE 1 (continued) “complaint and summons” means a complaint and summons under the Justices Act 1886 . “GOC” (or “government owned corporation” ) has the same meaning as in the Government Owned Corporations Act 1993 . “lawyer” means a barrister, solicitor, barrister and solicitor or legal practitioner of the High Court or the Supreme Court of a State. “of this Act” , when used in a schedule or appendix to an Act, means the Act apart from a schedule or appendix to the Act. “Parliament” means— (a) for Queensland—the Sovereign and the Legislative Assembly; or (b) for another State—the State’s legislature. “Queensland lawyer” means a barrister or solicitor of the Supreme Court. “statutory GOC” has the same meaning as in the GovernmentOwnedCorporations Act 1993 .’. 16.

Section 36, definition “under”— insert— ‘(d) within the meaning of.’. Explanatory notes What is part of an Act?—amendments 1 and 2 Section 14 clarifies what material is, and is not, part of an Act. Section 14D of the ActsInterpretationAct1954 explains the use of examples in Queensland legislation. Proposed section 14(3) puts it beyond doubt that an example in an Act is part of the Act. Existing section 14(3) states that schedules are part of an Act. Proposed section 14(4) restates this and also states that appendixes to an Act (for example, the Consumer Credit Code appended to the Consumer Credit (Queensland) Act 1994 ) are part of the Act. In future, definitions in an Act will, if appropriate, be set out in alphabetical order in a dictionary in the last schedule to the Act. If a dictionary is used, there will be a provision in the body of the legislation (where a definitions section would have been located) referring to the dictionary and its location. Amendment 2 is a consequential renumbering of section 14’s remaining subsections. References to British Acts—amendment 3 Section 14F(4) deals with references to British Acts. Amendment 3 adds the common abbreviations ‘UK’ and ‘Imp’ to the terms that may be used in the citation of a British Act. Repealed Acts etc. not revived—amendment 4 Section 19 provides that an amended or repealed Act is not revived merely because the amending or repealing Act is itself later repealed or amended. Amendment 4 makes it clear that the section only applies if the amending or repealing Act has commenced.
15 Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) (No. 2) No. 87, 1994 SCHEDULE 1 (continued) Omission of commencement provision—amendment 5 Proposed section 19A ensures that the omission of commencement provisions or (under the Statutory Instruments Act 1992 ) the repeal of commencement instruments does not affect the continuing operation of a commenced law. This Bill also inserts section 39A of the StatutoryInstrumentsAct1992 to automatically repeal commencement instruments to assist maintenance of the Statute Book. Delegation of powers—amendment 6 Section 27A deals extensively with delegation of powers. This simplifies and shortens other Acts that authorise delegations by providing provisions explaining the mechanics of delegation and otherwise supporting the use of a short standard delegation along the following lines— Delegation 00. The XYZ Corporation may delegate its power to a corporation member.’. Section 27A(16) already defines power to include doing an act or making a decision for the purpose of performing a function. Proposed section 27A(1A) ensures that this extended meaning is given to ‘power’ when used in a short standard delegation. Definitions in 2 Acts—amendment 7 Section 32AA deals with what happens when a term is defined in both the ActsInterpretationAct1954 and another Act. Existing section 32AA(c) states that a non-exhaustive definition in the other Act does not exclude, but may extend the ActsInterpretation Act definition. The proposed amendment makes it clear that not only does the other Act’s definition not exclude the ActsInterpretationAct definition, it also does not limit the Acts Interpretation Act definition. Meaning of “must” and “may”—amendment 8 Section 32CA deals with the meaning of “may” and “must”. Existing section 32CA(3) already states that the section has effect for Acts passed after 1 January 1992 despite any rule of construction to the contrary. Proposed section 32CA(3) merely remakes the provision in a way that is consistent with an amendment of section 14A of the Acts Interpretation Act 1954 proposed by the Fire Service Legislation Amendment Bill 1994 .
16 Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) (No. 2) No. 87, 1994 SCHEDULE 1 (continued) Meaning of commencement—amendment 9 Proposed section 32F(1) restates the existing definition of “commencement” in section 36. Proposed section 32F(2) facilitates the shortening of provisions referring to commencement of the provision in which the reference is made. References to department and chief executive—amendment 10 Section 33 allows simple references to Ministers, departments and chief executives by explaining the meaning of the references in particular contexts. Proposed section 33(4B) is a basic provision explaining that a reference to a department is a reference to a department of government. Proposed section 33(5AC) is a similar basic provision explaining that a reference to a chief executive is a reference to a chief executive of a unit of the public sector. Proposed section 33(4B) and 33(5AC) mirror section 33(1)(a) which explains references to Ministers. References to certain provisions—amendment 11 Existing section 35B is a technical provision included to assist Queensland legislative drafters in drafting legislation and readers of Queensland legislation in reading legislation. It provides an explanation of references in an Act to Chapters, Parts, schedules, sections, subsections and certain other provisions of an Act. Rationalisation of the name of provision units is part of the process of standardising legislative drafting. Until 1991, the practice in Queensland was to give provision units of statutory instruments different names according to the type of the instrument. Now the name of provision units of statutory instruments, with limited exceptions, follow that used in Acts, namely, Chapter, Part, Division, Subdivision, section, subsection etc. However, the name of provision units in schedules still differ from the name of provision units in the body of an Act. For example, ‘clause’ and ‘subclause’ are used in the schedule context, while ‘section’ and ‘subsection’ are used in the body of the Act. This will be standardised so the name of provision units in schedules follow that used in the body of an Act. This standardisation must be supported by rules to avoid possible confusion about, for example, whether a section reference in a schedule is to a section in the body of the Act or to a section of the schedule. The supporting rules have been introduced by the proposed amendments of section 35B.
17 Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) (No. 2) No. 87, 1994 SCHEDULE 1 (continued) Basically, a reference in the body of an Act is a reference to the relevant provision in the body of the Act, while a reference in a schedule or appendix is a reference to the relevant provision in the schedule or appendix. For example, ‘section 14’, if used in the body of an Act, means section 14 of the body of the Act. In the body of an Act, ‘section 14 of the schedule’ would be used to refer to section 14 of the schedule. ‘[S]ection 14’, if used in a schedule to an Act, means section 14 of the schedule. In a schedule to an Act, ‘section 14 of this Act’ would be used to refer to section 14 of the body of the Act—see proposed definition “of this Act” in section 36. The amendment gives extensive examples. What is part of a provision?—amendments 12 and 13 Existing section 35C is a technical provision included to assist Queensland legislative drafters in drafting amending legislation. Existing section 35C(1) provides that a heading to a provision (for example, a Chapter) is part of the provision to which it is a heading. This means an amendment omitting a Chapter omits the Chapter’s heading because it is part of the Chapter. A separate amendment omitting the heading is unnecessary. Proposed section 35C(2) applies a similar rule to examples. Accordingly, if a provision having an example is omitted, the example is automatically omitted. This reduces the number of separate amendments otherwise necessary. Proposed section 35C(3) and (4) apply a similar rule to penalties. Amendment 13 is a consequential renumbering of section 35C’s remaining subsections. Definitions—amendments 14 to 18 New definition—“chief executive officer” The proposed definition of “chief executive officer” ensures that a reference in an Act to the chief executive officer of a local government is, if the local government referred to is the Brisbane City Council, a reference to the town clerk of the Brisbane City Council.

Reference to provision of schedule or appendix 33B.(1) If— (a) in the body of a law there is a reference to a provision of an unnumbered schedule or appendix; and (b) the words ‘of the schedule’, ‘of the appendix’, or words of similar effect, do not appear at the end of the reference; the words ‘of the schedule’, ‘of the appendix’, or words of similar effect, may be inserted at the end of the reference. (2) If— (a) in the body of a law there is a reference to a provision of a numbered schedule or appendix; and (b) words indicating the schedule or appendix by number do not appear at the end of the reference; words indicating the schedule or appendix by number, or words of similar effect, may be inserted at the end of the reference. (3) If— (a) in a schedule or appendix to a law there is a reference to a
46 Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) (No. 2) No. 87, 1994 SCHEDULE 1 (continued) provision of the body of the law; and (b) words indicating that the reference is to the body of the law do not appear at the end of the reference; words indicating that the reference is to the body of the law may be inserted at the end of the reference. (4) In this section— “body of a law” means the law other than a schedule or appendix to the law. Example of subsection (3)— In an Act, ‘of this Act’ and, in a regulation, ‘of this regulation’ could be inserted at the end of a reference in Schedule 1 to ‘section 14’ of the body of the law. ’. 7. After section 42A— insert— Omission of provision heading with reference 42B. Words associated with a reference to a provision of a law indicating the provision heading of, or associated with, the provision referred to may be omitted. Example— If a provision states that— ‘An officer may make a disclosure under section 28(2)(a) (Public officer may disclose official misconduct)’ and the words in brackets are the section heading for section 28, the provision may be reprinted as— ‘An officer may make a disclosure under section 28(2)(a)’. ’. 8. Section 48(2)— renumber as section 48(3).
47 Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) (No. 2) No. 87, 1994 SCHEDULE 1 (continued) 9. Section 48— insert— (2) If a previous reprint of a law (including a law that has not been amended) has been printed by the Government Printer— (a) the text of the law as at the reprint date is, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, taken to be shown correctly in the reprint; and (b) a court or person acting judicially must take judicial notice of a document or matter purporting to be such a reprint.’. Explanatory notes Status of previous reprints—amendments 1, 8 and 9 These amendments are to preserve the status of reprints authorised under Acts passed before the ReprintsAct1992 . The Acts which authorised the Public Acts of Queensland Reprint (1936) and the Queensland Statutes (1962 Reprint) are repealed by this Act. These amendments are to ensure judicial notice is taken of the previous reprints and to preserve the presumption that the law stated in those reprints is correct at the reprint date. Amendment 8 makes a consequential numbering change. Reprinting of previous reprints—amendment 2 There are a number of reprints of Acts still in existence that were prepared, under the authority of an Act, by consolidating 2 or more Acts. An example is the Queensland Law Society Act 1952 . The current reprint of that Act is based on the Queensland Law Society Acts 1927 to 1952 and the Queensland Law Society Acts 1930 to 1952 . The Queensland Law Society Acts Amendment Act 1952 (Pt 4) authorised the preparation of a reprint consolidating the Acts. Amendment 2 will allow a reprint of the Queensland Law Society Act 1952 to be prepared under the ReprintsAct1992 based on that reprint. Provision headings—amendments 3 and 7 Although initially useful, the continued inclusion in subsequent reprints of a provision heading in a reference to the provision can be distracting and irritating to the reader. Proposed section 42B will enable such a provision heading to be omitted. The provision heading may be relocated as a footnote at an appropriate time.
48 Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) (No. 2) No. 87, 1994 SCHEDULE 1 (continued) Note that the provision heading (whether contained in the text or a footnote) may be updated under section 5 of the ReprintsAct1992 if it has been amended—see proposed example 5. Authority to make editorial changes—amendment 4 Section 7(1) allows editorial changes to be made to the text of a law when it is reprinted. The proposed amendment of section 7(1)(d), (e) and (g) is necessary because of the new editorial changes possible under proposed section 42B and proposed Division 5A (dealing with the name of schedule and appendix provision units). Additional s 29 examples—amendment 5 Section 29 gives examples of the way a provision may be reprinted consistent with current legislative drafting practice. Example 32 complements the proposed definition of “Act” in section 38 of the Statutory Instruments Act 1992 . Example 33 has been inserted to make clear that section 29 enables amounts of money expressed as pounds, shillings and pence to be replaced by the equivalent amount in decimal currency. Naming conventions in schedules and appendixes—amendment 6 Rationalisation of the name of provision units is part of the process of standardising legislative drafting. Until 1991, the practice in Queensland was to give provision units of statutory instruments different names according to the type of the instrument. Now the name of provision units of statutory instruments, with limited exceptions, follow that used in Acts, namely, section, subsection etc. However, the name of provision units in schedules and appendixes still differ from the name of provision units in the body of a law. For example, ‘clause’ and ‘subclause’ are used in the schedule context, while ‘section’ and ‘subsection’ are used in the body of a law. This will be standardised so the name of provision units in schedules will follow that used in the body of a law. This standardisation must be supported by rules to avoid possible confusion about, for example, whether a section reference in a schedule is to a section in the body of the law or to a section of the schedule. The supporting rules have been introduced by the proposed amendments of section 35B of the Acts Interpretation Act 1954 .
49 Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) (No. 2) No. 87, 1994 SCHEDULE 1 (continued) Proposed Division 5A will allow the standardisation in reprints of the names of provision units in schedules and appendixes. ´ SOUTH EAST QUEENSLAND WATER BOARD ACT1979 Amendment 1. Section 109— insert (7) After the commencement of the Electricity Act 1994 , a reference in this section to the Queensland Electricity Generating Board or the Generating Board is a reference to the Queensland Generation Corporation.’. Explanatory note This amendment is consequential on the Electricity Bill 1994 . ´ STATUTORY INSTRUMENTS ACT 1992 Amendments 1. Section 38, heading— omit, insert— References to certain instruments ’. 2. Section 38, definition “the Act”— omit, insert— “Act” or “the Act” , without mentioning a particular Act, means the Act under which the statutory instrument is made or in force.’.
50 Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) (No. 2) No. 87, 1994 SCHEDULE 1 (continued) 3. After section 39— insert— Subdivision 6—Miscellaneous Automatic repeal of commencement instrument 39A . A statutory instrument made after 31 December 1994 that merely provides for the commencement of a law (including a provision of a law) is automatically repealed at the beginning of the day after the commencement, or, if different commencements are provided for, at the beginning of the day after the last commencement.’. Explanatory notes References to certain instruments—amendments 1 and 2 Section 38 explains the meaning of references to certain instruments, for example, ‘this regulation’. It currently explains that, in a statutory instrument, ‘the Act’ means the Act under which the statutory instrument is made or in force. The proposed additional explanation of “Act” will, for example, enable the simplification of provision headings in statutory instruments from ‘Insurance premiums (s 20 of the Act)’ to ‘Insurance premiums—Act, s 20’. An example 32 has also been added to section 29 of the ReprintsAct1992 to allow the updating of reprints in this way. Amendment 1 makes a consequential amendment of the section heading. Automatic repeal of commencement instrument—amendment 3 Ensuring the Queensland Statute Book is of the highest standard is one of the statutory functions of the Office of the Queensland Parliamentary Counsel— Legislative Standards Act 1992 , section 7(j). ActsInterpretationAct1954 , section 22C already ensures the on-going automatic removal from the Statute Book of legislation that merely amends or repeals other legislation. Proposed section 39A is designed to further assist maintenance of the Statute Book by ensuring the on-going automatic removal from the Statute Book of statutory instruments that merely commence other legislation and have themselves
51 Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) (No. 2) No. 87, 1994 SCHEDULE 1 (continued) commenced. However, the repeal of a statutory instrument that merely commences other legislation does not affect the other legislation’s commencement— ActsInterpretationAct1954 , proposed section 19A (Commencement not undone if omitted) and section 20(1)(b) (Saving of operation of repealed Act etc.) as applied to statutory instruments by Statutory Instruments Act 1992 , section 14. ´ TRAFFIC ACT 1949 Amendments 1.

113 Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) (No. 2) No. 87, 1994 SCHEDULE 7 (continued) Whistleblowers (Interim Protection) and Miscellaneous Amendments Act1990 No. 79 Explanatory notes These are amending Acts enacted before 1 July 1994 (“pre-1 July 1994 Acts”) whose purpose ended when the last of the amending provisions took effect. Section 19 of the Acts Interpretation Act 1954 preserves the effect of amending Acts that are repealed. Unlike amending Acts enacted after 1 July 1994, they are not automatically repealed by section 22C of the Acts Interpretation Act 1954 . Pre-1 July 1994 Acts are being repealed as part of the Office of Queensland Parliamentary Counsel’s continuing review of the statute book. It is proposed to repeal all unrepealed amending Acts that have commenced as soon as possible. Their repeal will make it easier for users of legislation to be completely sure all provisions have become part of the amended Act. At the present time, substantive provisions can still be found in some pre-1 July 1994 Acts. As part of the review, substantive provisions that are still needed will be relocated into the Acts that are amended.
