44 Statutory rules may update certain legislative provisions enacted or made before repeal day
Any other Act, or a statutory rule made under any other Act, contains an outdated new legislative provision for the purposes of this clause if—
the provision concerned contains a reference (an outdated reference) to any Act or statutory rule that formed part of the road transport legislation (or to any provision of such an Act or statutory rule) that will or has become out of date or otherwise incorrect because of the repeal or renaming of any of the former road transport legislation or the enactment of this Act and the cognate Acts, and
the provision was enacted or made (or the outdated reference in the provision was inserted by an Act or statutory rule that was enacted or made) on or after the day on which the Bill for this Act was first introduced into Parliament, but before the repeal day.
The statutory rules may amend any other Act, or a statutory rule made under any other Act, that contains an outdated new legislative provision to replace the outdated reference in the provision with a reference to the corresponding Act or statutory rule (or the corresponding provision or provisions of an Act or statutory rule) that form part of the new road transport legislation.
