(1) The Minister may, by legislative instrument, make rules prescribing matters of a transitional nature (including prescribing any saving or application provisions) relating to the amendments or repeals made by this Act.
(2) Without limiting subitem (1), rules made under this item before the day on which Schedule 5 commences (whether or not the rules relate to Schedule 5) may provide that provisions of this Act, or any other Act or instrument, have effect with any modifications prescribed by the rules. Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(3) Without limiting subitem (1), rules made under this item may make provision for and in relation to the recalculation of debts or amounts owing as mentioned in Part 5 of Schedule 1 to this Act including, but not limited to, specifying how a recalculation takes account of debts waived (whether in whole or part) before the recalculation.
(4) Without limiting subitem (1), rules made under this item may specify a course of study or an accelerator program course (within the meaning of the Higher Education Support Act 2003) at a merging university (within the meaning of Part 2 of Schedule 5 to this Act) to be a corresponding course at Adelaide University for the purposes of that Part.
(5) To avoid doubt, the rules may not do the following:
 (a) create an offence or civil penalty;
 (b) provide powers of:
 (i) arrest or detention; or
 (ii) entry, search or seizure;
 (c) impose a tax;
 (d) set an amount to be appropriated from the Consolidated Revenue Fund under an appropriation in this Act;
 (e) directly amend the text of an Act.
(6) Despite subsection 14(2) of the Legislation Act 2003, rules made under this item may make provision in relation to a matter by applying, adopting or incorporating, with or without modification, any matter contained in a document as in force or existing from time to time.
(7) This Act (other than subitem (5)) does not limit the rules that may be made under this item.
