Other notes

1         The Ports and Marine Legislation Amendment Act 2003 s. 4(2) reads as follows:


        (2)         The amendment made by subsection (1) does not affect the operation of the Port Authorities (Withdrawal and Revesting of Property) Order 2000 published in the Gazette on 2 June 2000.


2         The Port Authorities (Consequential Provisions) Act 1999 s. 3 and Pt. 3 have interpretation and transitional provisions.

3         The amendment in the State Superannuation Amendment Act 2007 s. 84 is not included because it was repealed by the State Superannuation Amendment Act 2011 s. 4 before the amendment purported to come into operation.

4         The Corporations (Consequential Amendments) Act (No. 3) 2003 s. 2-4 contain validation provisions.
