Explanatory note

This note is not part of the order, but is intended to indicate its general effect.

This order brings into force most of the provisions of the Copyright (New Technologies) Amendment Act 2008 (the Amendment Act) on 31 October 2008. The following do not come into force on 31 October 2008:

  • section 92A of the Copyright Act 1994, as inserted by section 53 of the Amendment Act, which this order brings into force on 28 February 2009:

  • section 19(2) of the Amendment Act (because it is already in force):

  • sections 48 and 85 of the Amendment Act (because they require amendment and will be brought into force at a later date once amended).

This order revokes an earlier commencement order to correct a technical error, but does not change the commencement dates intended by that earlier order.


Issued under the authority of the Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989.

Date of notification in Gazette: 23 October 2008.

This order is administered by the Ministry of Economic Development.
