Division 2—Amendments consequential on the amendments made in Division 1 of this Part

Interpretation

23. (1) In this Division:

"commencing day" means the day on which section 9 of this Act commences;

"Principal Act" has the same meaning as in Division 1 of this Part.

(2) In this Division, an offence is to be taken to be a federal offence if it is an offence that would, if committed on or after the commencing day, be a federal offence for the purposes of Part 1b of the Principal Act as amended by this Act, despite the fact that the offence was committed before the commencing day.

Licences granted under section 19a of the Principal Act

24. Any licence granted under section 19a of the Principal Act being a licence in force immediately before the commencing day, continues in force, with effect from that commencing day:

(a) as if it had been granted under section 19ap of the Principal Act as amended by this Act; and

   (b) if the period of the licence exceeds 5 years—as if the licence period ended on the commencing day or 5 years after the licence was granted, whichever happens last.

Licences revoked or cancelled under section 19a of the Principal Act before commencing day

25. (1) Where a person sentenced to a term of imprisonment in respect of a federal offence has had a licence granted under the Principal Act in respect of that sentence revoked under paragraph 19a (5) (b) of the Principal Act before the commencing day, then, whether or not the person has been arrested and brought before a prescribed authority before that day, the Principal Act continues to apply in relation to that person and that sentence, on and after that day, until that sentence is fully served, as if the amendments made by Division 1 of this Part had not been made.

(2) Where a person sentenced to a term of imprisonment in respect of a federal offence has had a licence granted under the Principal Act cancelled by a prescribed authority under subsection 19a (7) of the Principal Act before the commencing day, the Principal Act continues to apply in relation to that person and that sentence, on and after that day, until that sentence is fully served, as if the amendments made by Division 1 of this Part had not been made.

Sentences and orders under subsection 19b (1), 20 (1) or 20ab (1) of the Principal Act
