Airports Act 1996

The Minister may, by writing, declare that a specified day is the Sydney West Airport completion day for the purposes of this Act.

In making a declaration under subsection (1), the Minister must have regard to:

progress in relation to the completion of the developments covered by Part 3 of an airport plan for Sydney West Airport; and

any agreement between:

the Commonwealth; and

the airport‑lessee company for Sydney West Airport;

such other matters (if any) as the Minister considers relevant.

The Minister must cause a copy of a declaration under subsection (1) to be published on the Department’s website.

A declaration under subsection (1) is not a legislative instrument.

For the purposes of this section, development has the same meaning as in Division 4A.
