18 Minister may grant dispensations

(1)

The Minister may grant a dispensation authorising an aircraft to take off from, or land at, Adelaide Airport in circumstances that would otherwise contravene section 6 if the Minister is satisfied that there are circumstances justifying the take‑off or landing.

(2)

A dispensation may be granted subject to conditions including, for example, conditions relating to when the take‑off or landing must occur and the runway to be used.

(3)

In granting dispensations, the Minister must have regard to any matters specified in the regulations.

(4)

Without limiting what regulations made for the purposes of subsection (3) may specify, they may specify:

(a)

what constitutes circumstances justifying take‑offs and landings for the purposes of subsection (1); and

(b)

the conditions to which dispensations should be subject.

(5)

Subject to subsection (6) and despite paragraph 23(b), and subsection 33(3A), of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901, each dispensation must relate only to one take‑off of an aircraft or one landing of an aircraft.

(6)

Subsection (5) does not apply during the period spanning the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games and the Sydney 2000 Paralympic Games, from 27 August 2000 to and including 1 November 2000.
