Transitional provision for authorisation orders
96 Transitional provision for authorisation orders
Despite the commencement of sections 19(1) and 24 of the 2016 Act, an authorisation order that was in force immediately before that commencement continues to apply in respect of any natural resource agreement in respect of which it applied immediately before that commencement.
For the purpose of subsection (1)—
the authorisation order continues in force until it expires or is revoked; and
Division 3 of Part 6 as in force before that commencement continues to apply to the order.
In relation to an authorisation order to which subsection (1) applies—
(a) despite the commencement of section 30(3) of the 2016 Act, sections 48A and 52A of the Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988, as in force immediately before that commencement, continue to apply in relation to the authorisation order; and
despite the commencement of section 31(2) and (3) of the 2016 Act, sections 57Q(5), 57ZF(2), 59(1B) and 96C of the Forests Act 1958, as in force immediately before that commencement, continue to apply in relation to the authorisation order; and
despite the commencement of section 35 of the 2016 Act, section 8A of the Water Act 1989, as in force immediately before that commencement, continues to apply in relation to the authorisation order; and
(d) despite the commencement of section 36(2) of the 2016 Act, sections 47B and 58C(1A)(b) of the Wildlife Act 1975, as in force immediately before that commencement, continue to apply in relation to the authorisation order.
In this section—
authorisation order has the same meaning as in section 79 as in force immediately before the commencement of section 19 of the 2016 Act.
Pts 9–19 (Headings and ss 95–147) repealed by No. 62/2010 s. 147.
