• Acts, legislative instruments and notifiable instruments as made, and explanatory statements for legislative instruments;

• compilations of Acts, legislative instruments and notifiable instruments;

• other relevant documents and information.

Rule‑makers for legislative instruments and notifiable instruments are responsible for lodging the instruments for registration (together with explanatory statements for legislative instruments).
