S. 601 inserted by No. 72/2004 s. 33.
An amendment made to this Act by a provision of the Children and Young Persons (Age Jurisdiction) Act 2004 applies to all persons on and after the commencement of that provision regardless of whether or not immediately before that commencement—
the person was in custody within the meaning of Subdivision (30A) of Division 1 of Part III; or
the person had consented to undergo a forensic procedure under section 464R but the procedure had not yet been conducted; or
the conduct of a non-intimate compulsory procedure was authorised under section 464SA but the procedure had not yet been conducted; or
the person had consented to give a sample in accordance with section 464ZGB but the sample had not yet been taken.
Without limiting subsection (1) or section 14(2) of the Interpretation of Legislation Act 1984, an amendment made to this Act by a provision of the Children and Young Persons (Age Jurisdiction) Act 2004 does not affect any order made by a court under Subdivision (30A) of Division 1 of Part III before the commencement of that provision and any such order may be executed or enforced, and any period of custody specified in it may be extended, as if this Act had not been amended by that provision.
