3     Legislation history

This Act was originally a Commonwealth ordinance—the Workmen's Compensation Ordinance 1951

No 2 (Cwlth).

The Australian Capital Territory (Self-Government) Act 1988

(Cwlth), s 34 (4) converted most former Commonwealth ordinances in force in the ACT into ACT enactments. This allowed the ACT Legislative Assembly to amend and repeal the laws. This Act was converted into a     n ACT enactment on 11 May 1989 (self-government day).

As with most ordinances in force in the ACT, the name was changed from Ordinance to Act by the Self-Government (Citation of Laws) 1989 A1989-21

, s 5 on 11 May 1989 (self-government day).

The Act was renamed as the Workers' Compensation Act 1951 by the Workers' Compensation (Amendment) Act 1991 A1991-105

, and later renamed as the Workers Compensation Act 1951 under the Legislation Act 2001

(see also A2001-81

s 5).

Before 11 May 1989, ordinances commenced on their notification day unless otherwise stated (see Seat of Government (Administration) Act 1910

(Cwlth), s 12).

Editorial changes

The Legislation Act 2001

, s 115 and s 117). The changes are made if the Parliamentary Counsel considers they are desirable to bring the law into line, or more closely into line, with current legislative drafting practice.

This republication does not include amendments made under part 11.3 (see endnote 1).

Modifications

If a provision of the republished law is affected by a current modification, the symbol  M  appears immediately before the provision heading. The text of the modifying provision appears in the endnotes. For the legal status of modifications, see the Legislation Act 2001
