AUSTRALIA'S FOREIGN RELATIONS (STATE AND TERRITORY ARRANGEMENTS) ACT 2020 (NO. 116, 2020) - SECT 50

Simplified outline of this Part

This Part mostly deals with general matters that are relevant to this Act.

The Minister must take into account certain matters when making declarations under this Act. Those matters are set out in section 51.

If the Minister is satisfied that an entity has contravened, is contravening, or is proposing to contravene particular provisions of this Act, the Minister may apply to the court for an injunction to require the entity to comply with the provision.

The Minister must keep a Public Register and make that register available for public inspection on the internet. Broadly, the Public Register must contain particular information about foreign arrangements to which this Act applies, and their subsidiary arrangements. Some information must not be included on the Public Register (such as commercially sensitive information).

The Minister may make rules for the purposes of this Act.

Generally, this Act applies to the Australian National University as if it were a State/Territory entity.

This Part also deals with a number of miscellaneous matters (such as the Minister's ability to delegate the Minister's powers and functions under this Act, the extraterritorial application of this Act, approved forms and approved ways of giving notices to the Minister).
