LIMITATION OF ACTIONS ACT 1936 - SECT 38A

38A—Limitation laws are substantive laws

        (1)         A limitation law of the State is a substantive law of the State.

        (2)         A limitation law of another State or a Territory of the Commonwealth, or of New Zealand, is to be regarded as a substantive law of that place and applied accordingly.

        (3)         If a court in this State applies a limitation law of another State or a Territory of the Commonwealth, or of New Zealand, a discretion conferred by that law is to be exercised, as far as practicable, in the same way as courts in that other place exercise the discretion in comparable cases.
