Repeal of Part IVA of the pre-reform Act -- other functions and powers of pre-reform authorised officers in relation to investigation of alleged breaches started before the reform commencement

         (1)   This regulation applies if:

                (a)    a pre‑reform authorised officer was conducting an investigation of an alleged breach of a matter for the compliance purposes mentioned in section 83BH of the pre‑reform Act before the reform commencement; and

               (b)    the investigation had not been completed before the reform commencement.

         (2)   Despite the repeal of Division 2 of Part IVA of the pre‑reform Act, a workplace inspector is authorised to exercise the workplace inspector's powers, and perform the workplace inspector's functions, under the Act in relation to the alleged breach.

         (3)   However, the pre‑reform Act and pre‑reform Regulations are taken to apply in relation to proceedings dealing with the imposition of a penalty in respect of the alleged breach.
