Guardianship and Administration Act 2019

The Guardianship and Administration Act 1986 is repealed.

Except as is expressly or by necessary implication provided in the new Act, all persons, things and circumstances appointed or created by or under the old Act or existing or continuing under the old Act immediately before commencement day continue under and subject to the new Act to have the same status, operation and effect as they would have had if the old Act had not been repealed.

On and after commencement day, any reference in any Act (other than the new Act or regulations under that Act), regulation, subordinate instrument or other document whatsoever to the old Act is to be construed as a reference to the new Act unless the contrary intention appears.

Nothing in this Part limits or otherwise affects the operation of the Interpretation of Legislation Act 1984.
