1A Simplified outline

The following is a simplified outline of this Act:
10
Overview
11
This Act is like a dictionary and manual to use when reading and
12
interpreting Commonwealth Acts and instruments made under
13
Commonwealth Acts.
14
The definitions and many of the interpretation rules are aimed at
15
making Commonwealth legislation shorter, less complex and more
16
consistent in operation.
17
A provision of this Act is subject to a contrary intention in other
18
Commonwealth legislation.
19
Structure
20
Part 1 provides that this Act applies to all Acts. This Act also
21
applies to legislative instruments and other instruments made under
22
an Act (see subsection 13(1) of the Legislative Instruments Act
23
2003 and subsection 46(1) of this Act).
24
Part 2 contains definitions that apply across all Commonwealth
25
legislation (for example, Australian citizen, business day,
26
document and month).
27
Schedule 1 Main amendments
6 Acts Interpretation Amendment Bill 2011 No. , 2011
Part 3 deals with the commencement of Commonwealth Acts. For
1
example, section 4 allows certain powers to be exercised (like the
2
making of appointments) between the enactment and
3
commencement of an Act.
4
Part 4 deals with the amendment, repeal and expiry of
5
Commonwealth legislation. For example, section 7 provides that
6
the repeal of an Act does not affect any rights accrued under the
7
Act, or any legal proceedings instituted, before the repeal.
8
Part 5 contains various rules for interpreting Commonwealth
9
legislation, including:
10
(a)
section 15A (about interpreting an Act subject to
11
the Constitution); and
12
(b)
section 15AA (which provides for interpreting an
13
Act in a way that best achieves the purpose or
14
object of the Act); and
15
(c)
section 15AB (about using material that is not part
16
of an Act (like explanatory memorandums and
17
second reading speeches) in interpreting an Act);
18
and
19
(d)
sections 19 to 19C (which deal with references to
20
Ministers, Departments and Secretaries of
21
Departments and with administrative changes in
22
the operation of the Commonwealth Government).
23
Part 6 deals with the service of documents on persons.
24
Part 7 contains rules about exercising powers and performing
25
functions and duties under Commonwealth legislation, including:
26
(a)
subsection 33(3) (which provides that a power to
27
make an instrument includes the power to vary or
28
revoke the instrument); and
29
(b)
section 33A (about acting appointments); and
30
Main amendments Schedule 1
Acts Interpretation Amendment Bill 2011 No. , 2011 7
(c)
sections 34AA, 34AB and 34A (about delegating
1
powers, functions and duties).
2
Part 8 deals with the calculation of distance, time and age.
3
Part 9 deals with the citation of Acts.
4
Part 10 deals with non-legislative instruments. For example, it
5
provides that this Act applies to those instruments and that
6
expressions in those instruments have the same meaning as in the
7
enabling legislation.
8
Part 11 contains a regulation-making power.
