Legislation Act 2001

If a subordinate law or disallowable instrument is disallowed, or taken to have been disallowed, under section 65, the Speaker must ask the parliamentary counsel to notify the disallowance.

If the Speaker asks the parliamentary counsel to notify the disallowance, the parliamentary counsel must—

notify the disallowance in the register; or

if it is not practicable to notify the disallowance in the register—notify the disallowance in another place the parliamentary counsel considers appropriate.

If the Speaker asks the parliamentary counsel to notify the disallowance on a particular day, the parliamentary counsel must notify the disallowance on that day unless it is impracticable to do so.

The disallowance is notified in the register by entering in the register—

a statement that the subordinate law or disallowable instrument has been disallowed under section 65; and

the text of the resolution passed, or taken to have been passed, by the Legislative Assembly under section 65; and

the day when the resolution was passed or taken to have been passed; and

the day when the subordinate law or disallowable instrument is taken to be repealed because of the resolution.

The disallowance is notified under subsection (2) (b) by publishing in the place decided by the parliamentary counsel under that subsection—

a statement that the subordinate law or disallowable instrument has been disallowed under section 65; and

the text of the resolution passed, or taken to have been passed, by the Legislative Assembly under section 65; and

the day when the resolution was passed or taken to have been passed; and

the day when the subordinate law or disallowable instrument is taken to be repealed because of the resolution.

If the disallowance is notified under subsection (2) (b), the parliamentary counsel must enter in the register—

a statement that the subordinate law or disallowable instrument has been disallowed under section 65; and

a statement that the disallowance was notified under subsection (2) (b) in a stated place on a stated date; and

the text of the resolution passed, or taken to have been passed, under section 65; and

the day when the resolution was passed or taken to have been passed; and
