(b) necessary or convenient to be prescribed for carrying out or giving effect to this Act.

Section 5 of the Act defines an airport site to be, inter alia, a place "declared by the regulations to be an airport, site".

The Airports Regulations (the Regulations), inter alia, specify the land titles that comprise the airports sites.

The amendments to the Regulations commenced upon notification in the Gazette.
