reviewable State decision means a decision:
(a) to which the amended Act applies because of the application of paragraph (b) of the definition of decision to which this Act applies in subsection 3(1) of that Act; and
(b) that was made under a law of a State.

(b) that was made under a law of the Australian Capital Territory or the Northern Territory.
Reviewable State decisions made before the commencement—situations in which period for seeking review under amended Act is extended
(2) In each of the following situations, the amended Act applies in relation to a person and a reviewable State decision as if the prescribed period for the purposes of paragraph 11(1)(c) of that Act began on the commencement and ended on the later of the 28th day after the commencement and the day on which that prescribed period would, apart from this subitem, have ended:
(a) the first situation—the decision was made during the period starting on 20 May 1999 and ending immediately before the commencement;
(b) the second situation—before 17 June 1999, the Federal Court of Australia, purporting to act under the Administrative Decisions (Judicial Review) Act 1977 as purportedly applied as a law of a State, made an order allowing the person further time to make an application for an order of review of the decision and that period of time had not expired by 17 June 1999;
(c) the third situation—immediately before 17 June 1999, proceedings by way of an application by the person for an order of review of the decision were before the Federal Court of Australia under the Administrative Decisions (Judicial Review) Act 1977 as purportedly applied as a law of a State.

(3) A law of the Australian Capital Territory or the Northern Territory that provides for the application of the Administrative Decisions (Judicial Review) Act 1977 as a law of that Territory is of no effect at any time after the commencement so far as that law purports to apply that Act in relation to a reviewable Territory decision (whenever it was made).
Note: The amended Act applies to these decisions.
Reviewable Territory decisions—review proceedings continue after the commencement under the amended Act
(4) If, immediately before the commencement, proceedings in relation to a reviewable Territory decision were before a court under the Administrative Decisions (Judicial Review) Act 1977 as applying as a law of the Australian Capital Territory or the Northern Territory, then, on and after the commencement, those proceedings continue as if they had been commenced in that court under the amended Act.
Reviewable Territory decisions—continued effect of orders made before the commencement
(5) An order made by a court before the commencement under the Administrative Decisions (Judicial Review) Act 1977 as applying as a law of the Australian Capital Territory or the Northern Territory has effect, on and after the commencement, as if it had been made by that court under the amended Act.
