THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY
FOR THE AUSTRALIAN CAPITAL TERRITORY

(As presented)
(Attorney-General)
Statute Law Amendment Bill 2009

A Bill for
An Act to amend legislation for the purpose of statute law revision 

    

The Legislative Assembly for the Australian Capital Territory enacts as follows:

1	Name of Act
This Act is the Statute Law Amendment Act 2009.
2	Commencement
This Act commences on the 21st day after its notification day.
Note	The naming and commencement provisions automatically commence on the notification day (see Legislation Act, s 75 (1)).
3	Purpose
The purpose of this Act is to improve the quality of the statute law of the Territory by amending legislation for the purpose of statute law revision.
4	Notes
A note included in this Act is explanatory and is not part of this Act.
Note	See the Legislation Act, s 127 (1), (4) and (5) for the legal status of notes.
5	Legislation amended—schs 1–3
This Act amends the legislation mentioned in schedules 1 to 3.
6	Legislation repealed—sch 4
This Act repeals the legislation mentioned in schedule 4.

Schedule 1	Minor amendments
(see s 5)
Part 1.1	Environment Protection Act 1997
[1.1]	New section 164A
insert
164A	Expiry of notifiable instruments
	(1)	This section applies to a notifiable instrument under any of the following provisions:
·	section 25 (Consultation on draft environment protection policy);
·	section 41 (Notification of environmental protection agreements);
·	section 48 (Consultation on application for environmental authorisation);
·	section 50 (Notification of grant); 
·	section 59 (Notification of review of environmental authorisations).
	(2)	If the notifiable instrument does not state when the instrument expires, the instrument expires 6 months after the day it is notified.
Explanatory note
The Act requires public notice (by way of notification on the ACT legislation register) of the making of applications for environmental authorisations and the granting or review of environmental authorisations.  Environmental authorisations can cover things as diverse as holding outdoor concerts to running pest control operations.  Once a notice has been notified or, in the case of applications for authorisations, the period for public consultation has ended, there is little value in the notifications remaining current.  

While future notices may include expiry clauses, this amendment includes a provision in the Act that automatically expires notices once they have served their purpose.  The expired notices will still be available on the legislation register, but will appear under the ‘repealed’ heading.  This will ensure that only truly current instruments are included under the ‘current’ heading on the register, making it easier to access them.  
Part 1.2	Mental Health (Treatment and Care) Act 1994
[1.2]	New section 140A
insert
140A	Protection of officials from liability
	(1)	An official is not civilly liable for conduct engaged in honestly and without recklessness—
	(a)	in the exercise of a function under this Act; or
	(b)	in the reasonable belief that the conduct was in the exercise of a function under this Act.
	(2)	Any civil liability that would, apart from this section, attach to the official attaches instead to the Territory.
	(3)	In this section:
conduct means an act or omission to do an act.
official means—
	(a)	the chief psychiatrist; or
	(b)	the care coordinator; or
	(c)	a mental health officer; or
	(d)	an official visitor; or
	(e)	anyone else exercising a function under this Act.
Note	A reference to an Act includes a reference to the statutory instruments made or in force under the Act, including any regulation (see Legislation Act, s 104).
Explanatory note
This amendment inserts a standard provision to make it clear that officials exercising functions under the Act are protected from any civil liability that may arise in the proper exercise of those functions.

Schedule 2	Legislation Act 2001
(see s 5)
    
[2.1]	Section 60 (1)
omit everything before paragraph (a), insert
60	Correction etc of name of instrument
	(1)	This section applies if a legislative instrument, or a statutory instrument entered on the register under section 19 (3), is unnamed or the name it gives to itself—
Explanatory note
Section 60 ensures that legislative instruments notified on the legislation register are named correctly, in line with current legislative drafting practice  It provides for names to be added to unnamed instruments and sets out the limited circumstances in which the name of an instrument may be corrected to bring it into line with current legislative drafting practice.  Consistent naming of instruments makes them easier for users to find, therefore enhancing access to legislation.
The amendment will extend the section to statutory instruments added to the register under section 19 (3) (Contents of register).  That section includes provision for certain statutory instruments to be added to the register as ‘additional material’ if the parliamentary counsel considers it is likely to be helpful to users of the register.  For example, appointments of public servants to various statutory bodies are generally not notifiable but can be included on the register for public information, where appropriate.  The amendment will ensure that the naming conventions for legislative instruments apply also to this additional material.
[2.2]	Section 60 (1) (b)
omit
another legislative instrument
insert
another instrument
Explanatory note
This amendment is consequential on the extension of the application of section 60 to certain statutory instruments by another amendment.
[2.3]	Section 60 (1) (c)
omit
other legislative instruments
insert
other instruments
Explanatory note
This amendment is consequential on the extension of the application of section 60 to certain statutory instruments by another amendment.
[2.4]	Section 60 (2)
omit
the legislative instrument
insert
the instrument
Explanatory note
This amendment is consequential on the extension of the application of section 60 to certain statutory instruments by another amendment.
[2.5]	Section 60 (3) and (4)
omit
a legislative instrument
insert
an instrument
Explanatory note
This amendment is consequential on the extension of the application of section 60 to certain statutory instruments by another amendment.
[2.6]	Section 91 (9) (b)
substitute
	(b)	the heading of the relevant amending provision of the amending law;
Explanatory note
The existing paragraph refers to the ‘heading of the relevant amending provision of the amending Act’.  This amendment remakes the paragraph so that it is consistent with the rest of section 91 (9), which refers to ‘the amending law’.
[2.7]	Section 131 (1) 
substitute
	(1)	In an Act or statutory instrument, a definition of a term that includes the word ‘see’ followed by a reference to a law or instrument (a signpost definition) means the term has the same meaning as the term (or, if the reference includes a reference to the definition of another term, that term) has in the law or instrument, as in force from time to time. 
Examples
1	A signpost definition ‘food—see section 10.’ in the dictionary to an Act means that the word ‘food’ when used in the Act has the same meaning as it has in section 10, as in force from time to time.
2	A signpost definition ‘injury—see the XYZ Act 2001, dictionary.’ in the dictionary to another Act means that the word ‘injury’, when used in the other Act, has the same meaning as it has in the definition of injury in the XYZ Act 2001, dictionary, as in force from time to time.
3	A signpost definition ‘OH&S Council—see the XYZ Act 2000, dictionary, definition of council.’ means that the expression ‘OH&S Council’ has the same meaning as the word ‘council’ has in the definition of council in the XYZ Act 2000, dictionary, as in force from time to time.
Note	An example is part of the Act, is not exhaustive and may extend, but does not limit, the meaning of the provision in which it appears (see s 126 and s 132).
Explanatory note
The term ‘signpost definition’ is not currently defined in the Act, dictionary, part 1.  However, it is used in the heading to section 131 and in notes, and in provisions and notes in other Acts.  This amendment remakes the subsection to include the words in brackets to make clear that the definition described is a signpost definition. 
[2.8]	Section 160 (1)
substitute
	(1)	In an Act or statutory instrument, a reference to a person generally includes a reference to a corporation as well as an individual.
Explanatory note
This amendment revises section 160 (1) to make clear that the provision is giving meaning to the term ‘person’ and to enable a signpost definition for the term to be inserted in the dictionary.  
[2.9]	Dictionary, part 1, new definitions
insert
AS—see section 164 (1) (References to Australian Standards etc).
AS/NZS—see section 164 (2) (References to Australian Standards etc).
Australian/New Zealand Standard—see section 164 (2) (References to Australian Standards etc).  
Australian Standard—see section 164 (1) (References to Australian Standards etc).
Explanatory note
This amendment inserts signpost definitions for terms given meaning by section 164. 
[2.10]	Dictionary, part 1, new definition of daily newspaper
insert
daily newspaper means a daily newspaper circulating generally in the ACT.
Explanatory note
This amendment inserts a definition of daily newspaper into the Legislation Act, dictionary, part 1 (Meaning of commonly-used terms).  Including the term in the Legislation Act will simplify the statute book, as the term is currently used in over 50 Acts and regulations.
[2.11]	Dictionary, part 1, definition of person and note
substitute
person—see section 160 (References to people generally). 
Explanatory note
This amendment is consequential on changes made to section 160 (1) by another amendment.

Explanatory note
This amendment is consequential on an amendment of the Liquor Act 1975 made by the ACT Civil and Administrative Tribunal Legislation Amendment Act 2008, schedule 1, amendment 1.417 omitting divisions 2.1 and 2.2 of that Act.  Division 2.2 established the positions of Registrar and Deputy Registrar of Liquor Licences.  The amendment replaced those positions with the commissioner for fair trading.

omit
Explanatory note
This amendment is consequential on changes made to section 131 (1) by another amendment.

The old Regulation also prescribed, for the Act, section 6, definition of building work, building work that involves handling asbestos or disturbing friable asbestos.  The Building (General) Regulation 2008 (which replaces the old Regulation) contains a similar provision for the Act, section 6, definition of building work, however, it no longer prescribes anything for the Act, section 9, definition of specialist building work.  Consequently, the reference to ‘specialist building work’ in section 42A (1) has been amended to reflect that change.

[3.132]	Section 81 (1) (b)
substitute
	(b)	the dealings with regulated substances or regulated therapeutic goods to which the licence relates;
Explanatory note
The existing paragraph provides that in deciding whether an individual is a suitable person to hold a licence, the chief health officer must have regard to ‘the dealings to which the licence relates’.  However, the term ‘deals’ is defined in section 19 and section 21 in the context of regulated substances or regulated therapeutic goods and most uses of the term ‘dealings’ in the Act are to dealings with a regulated substance or therapeutic good (eg s 81 (3) (a) and s 152 (1) (b)).  This amendment brings the reference to ‘dealings’ in the paragraph into line with other uses of the term in the Act by providing the context for the use of the term.

omit

substitute
	(a)	if a form is approved under section 198 for an application under section 84 (1)—the application does not include the information and any documents required by the application form; or
Explanatory note
This provision refers to a failure to provide information and any documents required by ‘the application form’ for a licence.  However, the use of an application form is not otherwise required under the Act unless a form for the application is approved under section 198.  This amendment amends the paragraph to add the qualification of ‘if a form is approved under section 198 for an application under section 84 (1)’.
[3.135]	Section 88 (1) (a)
substitute
	(a)	what licence it is or the dealings with regulated substances or regulated therapeutic goods authorised by the licence;
Explanatory note
The existing paragraph provides that a licence must include ‘what licence it is or the dealings authorised by the licence’.  However, the term ‘deals’ is defined in section 19 and section 21 in the context of regulated substances or regulated therapeutic goods and most uses of the term ‘dealings’ in the Act are to dealings with a regulated substance or therapeutic good (eg s 81 (3) (a) and s 152 (1) (b)).  This amendment brings the reference to ‘dealings’ in the paragraph into line with other uses of the term in the Act by providing the context for the use of the term.
[3.136]	Section 89 (b)
omit

	(i)	the supervision of the dealings; and
	(ii)	the security of regulated substances and regulated therapeutic goods and of premises where regulated substances and regulated therapeutic goods are stored; and
	(iii)	the keeping of records about the dealings; and
Explanatory note
The references to ‘dealings’ in existing section 90 (2) (a) (i) and (iii) are amended to refer to ‘the dealings’ to provide a context for the use of the term.  The headwords to existing section 90 (2) provide that the chief health officer may include a condition in a licence to ensure that regulated substances and regulated therapeutic goods are properly dealt with under the licence.  The revised references to ‘the dealings’ will refer back to the reference to ‘dealt’ in the subsection’s headwords.
[3.138]	Section 102 (1) (b)
omit
Explanatory note
This amendment omits a redundant provision.  The paragraph effectively duplicates section 102 (1) (a).
[3.139]	Section 135 (3)
substitute
	(3)	If a sample of a substance taken by a medicines and poisons inspector is in the form of separate or severable objects, the inspector—
	(a)	may take a number of the objects; and
	(b)	if the inspector takes a number of the objects, must—
	(i)	divide them into 3 parts each consisting of 1 or more of the objects, or of the severable parts of the objects, and mark and either seal or fasten each part; and
	(ii)	deal with the sample under subsection (2) (b) to (d).
Explanatory note
Under the existing provision the word ‘may’ qualifies an inspector’s actions about dividing and dealing with the samples.  Once a sample is taken, the procedure for dividing and dealing with the sample should be mandatory.  This amendment brings the provision into line with the Work Safety Act 2008, section 113 (3) which provides that if a sample is taken, it ‘must’ be divided and dealt with in the stated way. 
[3.140]	Section 186 (1) (e) and (f)
substitute
	(e)	the suitability of premises (including vehicles) in relation to dealings with regulated things; and
	(f)	the supervision of dealings with regulated things; and
Explanatory note
The existing paragraphs relate to ‘dealings’.  However, the term ‘deals’ is defined in section 19 and section 21 in the context of regulated substances or regulated therapeutic goods and most uses of the term ‘dealings’ in the Act are to dealings with a regulated substance or therapeutic good (eg s 81 (3) (a) and s 152 (1) (b)).  This amendment brings the reference to ‘dealings’ in the paragraph into line with other uses of the term in the Act by providing the context for the use of the term.

Schedule 4	Repeal of redundant notifiable instruments
(see s 6)
Part 4.1	Environment Protection Act 1997
Explanatory note for sch 4
The Act requires public notice (by way of notification on the ACT legislation register) of the making of applications for environmental authorisations and the granting or review of environmental authorisations.  Environmental authorisations can cover things as diverse as holding outdoor concerts to running pest control operations.  Once a notice has been notified or, in the case of applications for authorisations, the period for public consultation has ended, there is little value in the notifications remaining current.  

This schedule repeals notifiable instruments that still appear on the legislation register under the ‘current’ heading but have served their purpose and are no longer needed.  The repealed notices will still be available on the legislation register, but will appear under the ‘repealed’ heading.  This will ensure that only truly current instruments are included under the ‘current’ heading on the register, making it easier to access them.
