18 Effect of directions etc., administrative actions of other jurisdictions
In this section —
administrative action means any action of an administrative nature that is prescribed by the regulations except the issue of a direction, notice or certificate mentioned in subsection (2);
administrative authority means —
a corresponding authority; or
a person holding an office constituted by or under the law of another jurisdiction and prescribed by the regulations; or
a body constituted by or under the law of another jurisdiction and prescribed by the regulations.
The regulations are to provide for the recognition of anything under the law of another jurisdiction corresponding to —
a direction under section 39, 40, 41 or 42; or
a direction under Part 4 Division 6; or
a direction under the Road Traffic (Vehicles) Act 2012 section 63(2) or (3), 64(2) or (5) or 65(3) or (5); or
an authorisation under the Road Traffic (Vehicles) Act 2012 section 67(2); or
a defect notice issued under Road Traffic (Vehicles) Act 2012 section 71(1); or
an improvement notice, a notice of an amendment of an improvement notice, or a clearance certificate given or issued under the Road Traffic (Vehicles) Act 2012 Part 6 Division 4,
and, if they do, are to specify the effects of that recognition for the purposes of this Act or any other relevant road law.
An administrative action of an administrative authority under or in connection with a law of another jurisdiction corresponding to a road law has effect in this State as if it were made or done under the road law.
Nothing in this section gives an administrative action effect in this State or in a particular place in this State —
in so far as the action is incapable of having effect in or in relation to this State or that place; or
if any terms of the action expressly provide that the action does not extend or apply to or in relation to this State or that place; or
if any terms of the action expressly provide that the action has effect only in the other jurisdiction or a specified place in the other jurisdiction.
