Classification of films, publications or computer games
58 Classification of films, publications or computer games
In this clause, the amending Act means the Crimes Amendment (Child Pornography) Act 2004.
To avoid doubt, section 578B (4) (b) (as in force before its repeal by the amending Act) does not prevent (and is taken never to have prevented), in respect of an alleged offence against that section—
a court attendance notice or other process being issued, or
a court attendance notice or other process being served, or
a person pleading guilty or a plea of guilty being accepted, or
sentence being passed for the offence on an offender who has pleaded guilty to the offence,
without the film, publication or computer game concerned having been classified under the Classification (Publications, Films and Computer Games) Act 1995 of the Commonwealth.
This clause extends to offences against section 578B in respect of which anything mentioned in subclause (2) occurred before the repeal of that section by the amending Act.
