Transitional etc provisions associated with Act or

Statutes Amendment (SACAT) Act
2014
157—Transitional provisions
(1) In this section—
principal Act means the Residential Parks
Act 2007;
relevant day means the day on which this Part comes into
operation;
Residential Tenancies Tribunal means the Tribunal established
under the Residential Tenancies Act 1995;
Tribunal means the South Australian Civil and Administrative
Tribunal established under the South Australian Civil and Administrative
Tribunal Act 2013.
(2) A decision (including a decision in the nature of a declaration),
direction or order of the Residential Tenancies Tribunal under the principal Act
in force immediately before the relevant day will, on and from the relevant day,
be taken to be a decision, direction or order of the Tribunal.
(3) A right to make any application or to seek a review under the
principal Act with respect to any matter in existence before the relevant day,
with the effect that the relevant proceedings would have been commenced before
the Residential Tenancies Tribunal, will be exercised as if this Part had been
in operation before the right arose, so that the relevant proceedings may be
commenced instead before the Tribunal.
(4) Any proceedings before the Residential Tenancies Tribunal under the
principal Act immediately before the relevant day will, subject to such
directions as the President of the Tribunal thinks fit, be transferred to the
Tribunal where they may proceed as if they had been commenced before the
Tribunal.
(5) The Tribunal may—
(a) receive in evidence any transcript of evidence in proceedings before
the Residential Tenancies Tribunal, and draw any conclusions of fact from that
evidence that appear proper; and
(b) adopt any findings or determinations of the Residential Tenancies
Tribunal that may be relevant to proceedings before the Tribunal; and
(c) adopt or make any decision (including a decision in the nature of a
declaration), direction or order in relation to proceedings before the
Residential Tenancies Tribunal before the relevant day (including so as to make
a decision or declaration, or a direction or order, in relation to proceedings
fully heard before the relevant day); and
(d) take other steps to promote or ensure the smoothest possible
transition from 1 jurisdiction to another in connection with the operation
of this section.
(6) The Tribunal may, on application under section 121 of the principal
Act made after the relevant date, vary or set aside an order of the Residential
Tenancies Tribunal made before the relevant date, provided that the application
