2 Commencement

  These Regulations commence on the day after they are registered.

3 Road transport legislation — Australian Road Rules

  For section 7 of the National Transport Commission Act 2003 (the NTC Act), Schedules 1 and 2 set out road transport legislation, in the form of amending Regulations, about the rules to be followed by all road users.

Note 1   The road transport legislation set out in Schedules 1 and 2 does not have the force of law (see paragraph 7 (2) (a) of the NTC Act).

Note 2   These Regulations must be made in accordance with the Agreement (see subparagraph 3 (b) (ii) of the NTC Act).

Note 3   These Regulations are not subject to disallowance — see the Legislative Instruments Act 2003, subsection 44 (2) (table, item 44) and the Legislative Instruments Regulations 2004, regulation 8 and Schedule 2 item 7.

Note 4   These Regulations are not subject to sunsetting — see the Legislative Instruments Act 2003, subsection 54 (2) (table, item 51) and the Legislative Instruments Regulations 2004, regulation 9 and Schedule 3 item 4.

Note 5   The amendments set out in Schedules 1 and 2 were originally drafted in the form of Regulations to be made under the Road Transport Reform (Vehicles and Traffic) Act 1993, but were not actually made as Regulations. In that form, they were approved by the Australian Transport Council on, respectively, 30 June 2003 and 12 September 2003. As approved by the Council, they included no formal provisions such as citation, commencement or amendment provisions.
