Radiation Control Act 1990

This section applies if the Authority or a public body is required to cease to exercise functions, or ceases to exercise functions, under section 5B(3) or (4).

The appropriate public body may continue to exercise functions commenced by the Authority or other public body, as if the functions had been exercised by the appropriate public body.

For the Act, this regulation and any proceedings, any function previously exercised by the Authority or other public body relating to the matter is taken to have been exercised by the appropriate public body.

Without limiting subsection (3), a notice or direction given by the Authority or other public body may be enforced, or varied or revoked, as if it had been given by the appropriate regulatory authority.

A notice issued by the Authority or other public body is taken to be varied, to the extent of any inconsistency, if a subsequent inconsistent notice is issued by or on behalf of the appropriate public body.

Nothing in this section affects the right of the other public body or the Authority to recover a fee, charge or cost under this Act or the regulations in relation to a notice given while exercising functions as referred to in section 5B(1) or (3).
