Membership of Commission
21 Membership of Commission
The persons who were members and deputy members of the existing Commission (including the chairperson and deputy chairperson) immediately before the commencement of the PD Act continue in office, under and subject to that Act, as the chairperson, deputy chairperson, members and deputy members of the board of the Commission established under the PD Act.
A person to whom subsection (1) applies is to be regarded as having been appointed under the PD Act.
If in a written law or other document or instrument there is —
a reference to the chairperson or a member of the existing Commission; or
a reference that is read and construed as a reference to the chairperson or a member of the existing Commission,
the reference may, where the context so requires, be read as if it had been amended to be a reference to the chairperson or a member of the board of the Commission established under the PD Act.
