Police Powers and Responsibilities Act 2000

On the commencement of this section, the provisions of this Act are amended by numbering and renumbering them in the same way as a reprint may be numbered and renumbered under the Reprints Act 1992, section 43.

Subsection (1) applies to a provision of this Act enacted or otherwise affected (a relevant provision) by a provision of an amending Act enacted but uncommenced when subsection (1) is commenced (the uncommenced provision), with the following intent for the relevant provision—

if the number of the relevant provision would have changed under subsection (1) had the uncommenced provision commenced—

a number is allocated to the relevant provision as if the uncommenced provision had commenced; and

when the uncommenced provision commences, the number of the relevant provision is amended by omitting it and inserting the number allocated to it under subparagraph (i);

if the relevant provision would have been omitted or relocated had the uncommenced provision commenced, its number remains the same as it was before the commencement of subsection (1) until the omission or relocation takes effect.

This section expires when the Cross-Border Law Enforcement Legislation Amendment Act 2005 expires or is repealed.

In this section—amending Act means an Act that amends this Act.
