Continued matters or things may be dealt with under new road transport legislation accordingly
4 Continued matters or things may be dealt with under new road transport legislation accordingly
This clause applies to any matter or thing (a continued matter or thing) that is—
approved, maintained, issued or made under the former road transport legislation, and
continued in force or effect, or taken to be a matter or thing, by a provision of this Part for the purposes of the new road transport legislation (or a specified provision of that legislation).
A continued matter or thing may be amended, repealed, revoked, replaced, reissued, renewed, suspended, cancelled or otherwise dealt with under the new road transport legislation as if it had been approved, maintained, issued or made under the new road transport legislation.
A continued matter or thing that was subject to any conditions imposed by or under the former road transport legislation is subject to the same conditions under the new road transport legislation.
A continued matter or thing that would have been in force or had effect under the former road transport legislation for a specified period ceases to be in force or have effect under the new road transport legislation at the same time as it would have ceased to be in force or have effect under the former road transport legislation.
This clause has effect unless the context or subject-matter otherwise indicates or requires.
