Editorial changes
The Legislation Act 2001, part 11.3 authorises the Parliamentary Counsel to make editorial amendments and other changes of a formal nature when preparing a law for republication.  Editorial changes do not change the effect of the law, but have effect as if they had been made by an Act commencing on the republication date (see Legislation Act 2001, s 115 and s 117).  The changes are made if the Parliamentary Counsel considers they are desirable to bring the law into line, or more closely into line, with current legislative drafting practice.  
This republication does not include amendments made under part 11.3 (see endnote 1).

made under the

1	Name of regulations
These regulations are the Fire Brigade (Administration) Regulations 1980.
2	Meaning of long service leave benefits
In these regulations:
Note	A definition applies except so far as the contrary intention appears (see Legislation Act 2001, s 155).
long service leave benefits means benefits of the kind provided under the Commonwealth Employees’ Furlough Act 1943 or the Long Service Leave (Commonwealth Employees) Act 1976, sections 16 and 17.
3	Long service leave benefits for certain persons
Subject to regulation 4, for the Act, section 16, the prescribed terms and conditions of employment of a person who became a member before 26 May 1978 (being terms and conditions relating to long service leave benefits) are, in relation to service on or after 25 November 1974, the terms and conditions specified in—
	(a)	the Fire Brigade Employees (A.C.T.) Award 1975, clause 22 made by the Australian Conciliation and Arbitration Commission, being Award No C321 of 1975; or
	(b)	the Long Service Leave (Commonwealth Employees) Act 1976 (Cwlth);

4	Calculation of long service leave benefits due to certain persons
For the purpose of calculating the long service leave benefits due under regulation 3 (a) to a person who became a member before 26 May 1978 and who had, immediately before becoming a member, been employed by the Board of Fire Commissioners of New South Wales—
	(a)	a period of service that that board would have been required to take into account in calculating the long service leave benefits that would have been due by that board to the person immediately before the person became a member shall be deemed to have been a period of service of the person with the brigade, whether or not the period of service would, of itself, have entitled the person to the provision of long service leave benefits by that board; and
	(b)	long service leave benefits enjoyed by the person in relation to a period of service referred to in paragraph (a) shall be deemed to have been enjoyed by the person in relation to service with the brigade.

3	Legislation history
These regulations were originally called the Fire Brigade (Administration) Regulations and were originally made under a Commonwealth ordinance—the Fire Brigade (Administration) Ordinance 1974 No 52 (Cwlth).
The Australian Capital Territory (Self-Government) Act 1988 (Cwlth), s 34 (4) converted most former Commonwealth ordinances in force in the ACT, and the regulations made under them, into ACT enactments. This allowed the ACT Legislative Assembly to amend and repeal the laws. The Fire Brigade (Administration) Ordinance 1974 and the Fire Brigade (Administration) Regulations were converted into ACT enactments on 11 May 1989 (self-government day).
As with most ordinances in force in the ACT, the name of the ordinance was changed from Ordinance to Act by the Self-Government (Citation of Laws) Act 1989 No 21, s 5 on 11 May 1989 (self-government day).
These regulations were renamed as the Fire Brigade (Administration) Regulations 1980 under the Legislation Act 2001.
Before 12 September 2001, regulations commenced on their notification day unless otherwise stated (see Interpretation Act 1967 s 50, Subordinate Laws Act 1989 s 6).
