MARITIME POWERS ACT 2013 - SECT 46

Vessels, installations and isolated persons in States and internal Territories

    This Act does not authorise the exercise of powers in relation to a vessel, installation or isolated person in a State or internal Territory unless the powers are exercised:

  (a)   both:

  (i)   as part of the continuous exercise of powers begun outside the State or internal Territory ; and

  (ii)   in relation to conduct that occurred outside a State or internal Territory ; or

  (b)   in relation to a law of the Commonwealth in waters navigable from waters of the sea; or

  (c )   in connection with the exercise of powers in accordance with this section, to ensure the safety of a maritime officer or any other person.

Note:   The continuous exercise of powers does not end only because there is a period of time between the exercise of one or more of those powers: see section   11 .
