This Bill confirms and validates certain subordinate legislation that, in accordance with confirmation and validation provisions in the Acts under which it is made, lapses at a stated time unless earlier confirmed or validated by Act of Parliament.
Clause 1 states the Title the Bill will have when enacted.
Clause 2 provides that the Bill, when enacted, comes into force on the day after the date on which it receives the Royal assent.
Clause 3(1) states the purpose of the Bill when enacted. Most subordinate legislation is confirmed, but the orders in clauses 10, 12, and 13 are validated and confirmed because the Acts under which they are made provide that they expire at a stated time unless earlier validated and confirmed. However, the effect of the validations is limited by clause 4 because, as clause 3(2) provides, their purpose is only to prevent the expiry of those orders.
Clause 4 ensures, in the light of their purpose, which is only to prevent expiry of the orders validated, that the validations effected by clauses 10, 12, and 13 do not also cure any invalidity.
Clause 5 ensures that the Bill, when enacted, binds the Crown.
Clause 6 repeals the Subordinate Legislation (Confirmation and Validation) Act 2008, which is now spent.
Clause 7 confirms regulations under the Animal Products Act 1999.
Clause 8 confirms 6 orders under the Commodity Levies Act 1990.
Clause 9 confirms 7 orders under the Customs and Excise Act 1996.
Clause 10 validates and confirms an order under the following Acts:
New Zealand Superannuation and Retirement Income Act 2001:
Social Security Act 1964.
Clause 11 confirms an order under the Road User Charges Act 1977.
Clause 12 validates and confirms 3 orders under the Tariff Act 1988.
Clause 13 validates and confirms an order under the War Pensions Act 1954.
Clause 14 confirms an order under the Wine Act 2003.
