Water Resources Act 2007

A statutory instrument under this Act may apply, adopt or incorporate a law or instrument as in force from time to time.

Note The text of an applied, adopted or incorporated law or instrument, whether applied as in force from time to time or at a particular time, is taken to be a notifiable instrument if the operation of the Legislation Act, s 47 (5) or (6) is not disapplied (see s 47 (7)).

The Legislation Act, section 47 (5) and (6) do not apply to any of the following laws or instruments applied, adopted or incorporated under a statutory instrument under this Act:

a law of another jurisdiction;

an Australian Standard;

an Australian/New Zealand Standard.

Note These laws and instruments do not need to be notified under the Legislation Act because s 47 (5) and (6) do not apply (see Legislation Act, s 47 (7)). Laws of other jurisdictions are available on each jurisdiction’s website. Standards are available at www.standards.org.au.

In this section:

law of another jurisdiction—see the Legislation Act, section 47 (10).
