Explanatory note

This Supplementary Order Paper makes technical changes to improve the clarity of the Bill and updates the Schedule of the Bill.

Clause 2, which relates to commencement, is replaced with a commencement provision that—

brings into force on the day after the date on which the Royal assent is received Part 1 (general provisions), subpart 3 of Part 2 (revision), and most of Part 4 (provisions relating to the Parliamentary Counsel Office (PCO) and the repeal of the Statutes Drafting and Compilation Act 1920):
enables the rest of the Bill to be brought into force by 1 or more Orders in Council, but not later than 1 July 2014. This will allow time to make the necessary changes to the PCO's website, introduce the Legislative Instruments series, and to complete the checking of the PCO's legislation database to enable electronic versions of legislation to be officialised.

Clause 18 is amended by inserting new subclause (5) relating to the legal effect of official reprints of legislation. The new provision is based on similar Australian legislation, for example, section 9 of the Reprints Act 1992 (Qld) and will enable legislation as reprinted to be amended, incorporated, or referred to by other legislation as if authorised changes made by the reprint had been enacted by legislation. For example, if an Act is reprinted with authorised renumbering, the new numbering can be cited and relied on in any subsequent amending legislation.

Clause 25 is amended by replacing subclause (2) with a provision that clarifies the process for changing the numbering of legislation being reprinted. An Order in Council under this provision may—

authorise a reprint of specified legislation to be numbered or renumbered in the manner set out in the order:
authorise a reprint of other specified legislation to update references in that legislation to provisions that are so numbered or renumbered.

This clause is also amended to allow a reprint to change words in the Māori language (te reo Māori) to reflect current orthographic conventions.

Clause 28 is amended by omitting the definition of the term revision Act. The term is used only in clause 34 and is defined there.

Clause 29(1) (an overview provision) is amended to refer to the procedure for certifying revision Bills.

New clause 32A provides that a revision Bill can be introduced only if certified under subpart 3 of Part 2.

Clause 35(2) is amended by updating the 6-year period for the purposes of the review of the revision provisions.

Clauses 48(4) and 58(1)(g) are amended to clarify their application.

New clause 58A is amended by inserting a subclause that continues the Inland Revenue Department (Drafting) Order 1995. This provision was inadvertently omitted from this clause.

Clause 72 is amended to facilitate the proposed new commencement provisions.

New clause 74 is inserted to enable the statutory regulations series to be published for the remainder of the year in which the publication provisions in Part 2 of the Bill come into force. The intention is that the new legislative instrument series will start at the beginning of the next calendar year.

The Schedule, which changes references in various Acts to the Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989 and the Regulations (Disallowance) Act 1989, is updated.
