Explanatory note
This Supplementary Order Paper amends the Land Transport (Road Safety and Other Matters) Amendment Bill.
The amendments to clause 2 change the commencement date of certain provisions in the Bill.
The amendments to clause 4 insert new subclause (9AA), which adjusts the definition of qualifying bylaw, and move the definitions of blood specimen collecting instrument and blood specimen collecting procedure into their own subsection to change the commencement date of these definitions (see clause 2).
The amendment to clause 8 provides a penalty for the specified offence set out in new section 16A(3).
The amendment to clause 10 changes “a class specified in the bylaw” to “a specified class” to achieve consistency of terminology in new section 22AB(1).
The amendment to clause 12 changes the date on which new section 25(2) is determinative.
New clause 12A transfers the amendment set out in section 9 of the Land Transport (Enforcement Powers) Act 2009, which is yet to be brought into force, to this Bill to clarify when the amendment comes into force.
The amendment to clause 17 omits subclause (4).
The amendments to clause 28 omit “the specified” and substitute “a” in new section 65A(2)(b)(ii)(A) and omit the reference to zero alcohol licences in new section 65A(2)(b)(iii), refine new section 65B(3)(b), and adjust new section 65B(4) in the light of new clause 12A.
New clause 46A transfers the amendment set out in section 20 of the Land Transport (Enforcement Powers) Act 2009, which is yet to be brought into force, to this Bill to clarify when the amendment comes into force.
The amendments to clause 55 change “A District Court Judge” to “A District Court” in new section 95A(4) and change “court” to “High Court” in new section 95A(6).
The amendments to clause 73 omit new section 139A and change the heading of new section 139B as a consequence.
The amendment to clause 74 replaces section 141 of the Land Transport Act 1998 with a provision that combines elements from new section 139A, as omitted by the amendments to clause 73, and section 141 of the Land Transport Act 1998, as it currently stands.
New clause 92A repeals section 214(3) of the Land Transport Act 1998, which is no longer necessary as clause 95 of the Bill repeals the Transport Act 1962.
New clause 94A repeals Part 5 of Schedule 2 of the Land Transport Act 1998, which is no longer necessary as clause 95 of the Bill repeals the Transport Act 1962.
The amendments to Schedule 1 change the punctuation of 2 similar provisions.
The amendments to Schedules 2 and 3 specify the demerit points for a failure to produce a zero alcohol licence, and shift the item relating to section 31(1)(c) of the Land Transport Act 1998, which relates to zero alcohol licences, from Schedule 3 to Schedule 2 to group it with the other provisions in Schedule 2 related to zero alcohol licences. They also make consequential amendments to Part 3 of the Schedule of the Criminal Investigations (Bodily Samples) Act 1995, and repeal sections 9, 10, 20, and 21 of the Land Transport (Enforcement Powers) Act 2009 (which are yet to come into force), as a consequence of those sections being dealt with in the Bill or this SOP, and change several cross-references.
