Each of the former provisions continues to apply in relation to proceedings for offences alleged to have been committed before the repeal of section 5 of the Crimes Act 1900.
Note.
Section 5 of the Crimes Act 1900 defined the term maliciously for the purposes of that Act and was repealed by the Crimes Amendment Act 2007.
A reference in any of the former provisions to maliciously is taken to have always included a reference to intentionally or recklessly for offences alleged to have been committed on or after the repeal of section 5 of the Crimes Act 1900.
Clause 8A of Table 1 of Schedule 1 to this Act does not apply to proceedings for offences for which alleged offenders were charged before the commencement of that clause.
