Section 3 (3) and (4) [Section 3 (3), (4) and (5), Section 3 (3) to (6)] omit Drafting note 1 LA, s 106 removes the need to specify that number ranges like ‘3 to 6’ include both the and last number. Section 3 (4) (d) and (e) [Section 3 (4) (d), (e) and (f), Section 3 (4) (d) to (g)] omit Drafting notes 1 LA, s 106 removes the need to specify that ranges like ‘section 3 (4) (d) to (g)’ include both the first and last paragraph mentioned. 2 Use this approach for subparagraphs too. 3 It is not necessary to renumber the remaining paragraphs. This will be done by the Republications Team LA, s 116. Broken sequences of like text units Sections 3 and 6 [Sections 3, 4 and 6, Sections 3, 4 and 6 to 9] omit Drafting notes 1 This method of omitting selected text units in a ‘broken’ sequence may only be used if there are no other (intervening) amendments required between the first and last text unit mentioned. 2 The same applies to other types of broken sequences of like text units (parts, divisions, subsections, paragraphs etc). Omission of text unit sequences—mixed text units Continuous sequences of text units beginning and ending with a section Illustration: ss 12-16, div 2.2 heading, ss 17-30, pt 3 heading, ss 31-34 Sections 12 to 34 omit
Section 411 (2), definition of relevant document, new paragraph (aa) before paragraph (a), insert (aa) [text of paragraph]; and/or Drafting note 1 This insertion is not in the appropriate place (for LA, s 91). 2 It is not necessary to renumber the paragraphs. This will be done by the Republications Team under LA, s 116. 3 It is not necessary to repeat the entire description as it appears in the amending clause heading in the locator, the locator will become too long. Insertion of paragraph at the end of a series New section 6 (1) (e) [current 2nd-last para in series ends with and/or current last para in series ends with a full stop] insert (e) [text of paragraph]. Drafting note 1 It is not necessary to amend paragraph (d) to substitute the full stop with ‘and/or’. This will be done by the Republications Team under LA, s 116. Insertion of paragraph—non-standard New section 6 (1) (caa) section 6 (1) (c), insert (caa) [text of paragraph]; and/or Drafting note 1 This insertion is not in the appropriate place (for LA, s 91). Insertion of subparagraphs Drafting note 1 Subparagraph insertions follow the same rules as paragraph insertions. Insertion of schedule—standard New schedule 1 insert Schedule 1 Protected primates
Table 10 [Table 10.1] substitute Table 10 column 1 item column 2 column 3 table details Drafting note 1 This amendment replaces the entire table. Schedule 1, item 7, paragraph (b) (i) substitute (i) satisfy the criteria in AS/NZS 2243.3:2010, for classification as Risk Group 1; and Drafting note 1 The table has paragraphs and subparagraphs in column 2. This amendment replaces subparagraph (i) in item 7. Schedule 1 heading, reference substitute (see s 15) Drafting note 1 This amendment replaces the reference under the schedule heading. 2 This same principle as shown above applies to amending a dictionary reference. Insertions Schedule 1, new item 4A [new items 5 to 8] insert 4A armadillos through the tail Drafting notes 1 Also use for an insertion after the last table item. 2 There is no need to ‘locate’ the insertion. The ‘appropriate place’ is evident from the context. 3 For insertions at the beginning of a table, use a locator with before. 4 It is not necessary to renumber the table items. This will be done by the Republications Team under LA, s 116. This example is for a schedule that only has a table (therefore it is not numbered). For schedules with multiple tables include the table number after the schedule reference.
