	(a)	required or permitted by the Act to be prescribed; or
	(b)	necessary or convenient to be prescribed for carrying out or giving effect to the Act.
	(2) 	The application of subsection (1) in relation to a provision of an Act is not displaced by reason only that the Act also empowers the Executive to make regulations under the Act in relation to specified matters.

	(1)	The subordinate laws made in each calendar year shall be numbered in regular arithmetic series as nearly as may be in the order in which they are made.
	(2)	A subordinate law may, without prejudice to any other mode of citation provided by law, be cited by its number and the calendar year in which made.
	(3)	In this section:
subordinate law means regulations, rules or by-laws, but does not include rules of court that relate only to dates of sittings of a court.
5	Exercise of certain powers between notification and commencement of Act
	(1)	Where an Act (the Act concerned) being—
	(a)	an Act that is not to commence on the day on which it is notified in the Gazette; or
	(b)	a converted ordinance that did not commence before self-government day;
confers power, or amends another Act in such a manner that the other Act, as amended, confers power, to make an appointment or to make a subordinate law or an instrument of an administrative nature, then, unless the contrary intention appears, the power may be exercised, and anything may be done for the purpose of enabling the exercise of the power or of bringing the appointment, subordinate law or instrument into effect, before the Act concerned commences as if it had commenced.
	(2)	An appointment, subordinate law or instrument made by virtue of subsection (1) or, if such a law or instrument contains 2 or more provisions, each of those provisions, takes effect—
	(a)	on the day on which the Act concerned commences; or
	(b)	on the day on which the appointment, subordinate law, instrument or provision, as the case may be, would have taken effect if the Act concerned had been in operation when the appointment, subordinate law or instrument was made;
whichever is the later.
	(4)	Where this section applies to an Act because the Act amends another Act in the manner referred to in subsection (1) and that other Act has not commenced, this section has effect as if the references in subsections (1) and (2) to the commencement of the Act concerned were references to the commencement of the other Act as amended by the Act concerned.

	(c)	if the first-mentioned law or provision was disallowed by resolution—the Legislative Assembly has rescinded the resolution; or
	(d)	if the first-mentioned law or provision was to be deemed to have been disallowed—the Legislative Assembly by resolution has approved the making of a subordinate law the same in substance, or containing a provision the same in substance, as the law or provision to be deemed to have been disallowed.
	(11) 	If the Legislative Assembly, pursuant to a motion of which notice has been given within 6 sitting days after a subordinate law has been laid before it, by resolution amends that law, then, subject to this section, that law is amended and has effect accordingly.

	(16) 	Subsection (10) applies in relation to a subordinate law amended, or to be deemed to have been amended, under this section as if the reference in that subsection to a subordinate law disallowed or to be deemed to have been disallowed were a reference to the firstmentioned subordinate law before being so amended or deemed to have been amended, as the case requires.
	(17) 	Notwithstanding subsections (7A) and (11), an amendment of a subordinate law made, or to be deemed to have been made, under this section which would, but for this subsection, have the effect of waiving or altering any fee, charge, penalty or other amount payable to the Territory is of no effect.
	(18) 	Notwithstanding subsections (7A) and (11), an amendment of a subordinate law, other than a regulation, rule or by-law, made, or to be deemed to have been made, under this section is of no effect.

8	Prescribing matters by reference to other instruments

	(ii)	of any Commonwealth Act, or of any regulations, rules or disallowable instrument under a Commonwealth Act; or

9	Application of Interpretation Act 1967

	(3)	A subordinate law or an instrument referred to in subsection (1) shall be read and construed subject to the Act under which it was made and so as not to exceed the power conferred on the person or body by which it was made, to the intent that where the subordinate law or instrument would, but for this subsection, have been construed as being in excess of the power conferred upon that person or body, it shall be deemed to be a valid law or instrument to the extent to which it is not in excess of that power.
