Aboriginal ancestral remains
82 Aboriginal ancestral remains
In this section —
Aboriginal ancestral remains has the meaning that was given in section 11 of the 2021 Act.
This section applies to Aboriginal ancestral remains if —
the ancestral remains are transferred into the custody of the ACH Council under the 2021 Act before repeal day; and
the ancestral remains are still in the custody of the ACH Council immediately before repeal day.
On repeal day, the ancestral remains must be transferred into the custody of the Committee.
Despite the repeal of the 2021 Act, the Committee may then deal with the ancestral remains in accordance with section 60(a) to (c) of the 2021 Act as in force before repeal day (and as if references in those paragraphs to the ACH Council were references to the Committee).
