Family Violence Protection Act 2008

This section applies if, immediately before the commencement day, a complaint for an intervention order or an application for the variation, revocation or extension of an intervention order or an interim intervention order had been made under the repealed Act but a proceeding in relation to the complaint or application had not yet started.

On and from the commencement day, the complaint or application may be dealt with under the new Act as an application for a family violence intervention order or the variation, revocation or extension of an order as if it were an application made under that Act.

Section 7A(2) of the repealed Act continues to apply to a police officer in relation to a complaint or application made by that police officer under the repealed Act, or in relation to the police officer representing another police officer at a hearing in accordance with section 7A(1) of that Act, as if section 7A of the repealed Act had not been repealed.
