9C Application of Commonwealth laws as laws of this State
(1) The Commonwealth domestic commercial vessel national law, as in force from
time to time, applies as a law of this State.
(2) The
Commonwealth domestic commercial vessel national law so applies as if it
extended to matters in relation to which this State may make laws- (a) whether
or not the Commonwealth may make laws in relation to those matters, and
(b)
even though the Commonwealth domestic commercial vessel national law provides
that it applies only to specified matters with respect to which the
Commonwealth may make laws.
(3) Subsection (2) does not operate to exclude a
law of this State relating to marine safety that would not otherwise be
excluded by the Commonwealth domestic commercial vessel national law.
(4) The
regulations made under this Act may provide that the
Commonwealth domestic commercial vessel national law applies under this
section as if an amendment to that law- (a) made by a law of the Commonwealth,
and
(b) specified in the regulations made under this Part,
had not taken
effect.
