4 Changes made under section 17C of the Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989
Section 17C of the Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989 authorises the making of editorial changes in a reprint as set out in sections 17D and 17E of that Act so that, to the extent permitted, the format and style of the reprinted enactment is consistent with current legislative drafting practice. Changes that would alter the effect of the legislation are not permitted.
A new format of legislation was introduced on 1 January 2000. Changes to legislative drafting style have also been made since 1997, and are ongoing. To the extent permitted by section 17C of the Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989, all legislation reprinted after 1 January 2000 is in the new format for legislation and reflects current drafting practice at the time of the reprint.
In outline, the editorial changes made in reprints under the authority of section 17C of the Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989 are set out below, and they have been applied, where relevant, in the preparation of this reprint:
-
•
omission of unnecessary referential words (such as
“of this section”
and“of this Act”
) -
•
typeface and type size (Times Roman, generally in 11.5 point)
-
•
layout of provisions, including:
-
•
indentation
-
•
position of section headings (eg, the number and heading now appear above the section)
-
•
-
•
format of definitions (eg, the defined term now appears in bold type, without quotation marks)
-
•
format of dates (eg, a date formerly expressed as
“the 1st day of January 1999”
is now expressed as“1 January 1999”
) -
•
position of the date of assent (it now appears on the front page of each Act)
-
•
punctuation (eg, colons are not used after definitions)
-
•
Parts numbered with roman numerals are replaced with arabic numerals, and all cross-references are changed accordingly
-
•
case and appearance of letters and words, including:
-
•
format of headings (eg, headings where each word formerly appeared with an initial capital letter followed by small capital letters are amended so that the heading appears in bold, with only the first word (and any proper nouns) appearing with an initial capital letter)
-
•
small capital letters in section and subsection references are now capital letters
-
•
-
•
schedules are renumbered (eg, Schedule 1 replaces First Schedule), and all cross-references are changed accordingly
-
•
running heads (the information that appears at the top of each page)
-
•
format of two-column schedules of consequential amendments, and schedules of repeals (eg, they are rearranged into alphabetical order, rather than chronological).
