Some include a \"trigger\" that lets the Government choose exactly when they begin. This document pulls that trigger for the first eight items in Schedule 1, allowing those specific financial rules to take effect on New Year's Day 2008.\n\n**Who it affects**\nThis is an internal machinery change that primarily affects Commonwealth agencies and public‑sector finance officers who must comply with the new financial framework rules from the specified date."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/financial-framework-legislation-amendment-act-no-1-2007-proclamation","history":"/api/acts/financial-framework-legislation-amendment-act-no-1-2007-proclamation/history","analysis":"/api/acts/financial-framework-legislation-amendment-act-no-1-2007-proclamation/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/financial-framework-legislation-amendment-act-no-1-2007-proclamation/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/financial-framework-legislation-amendment-act-no-1-2007-proclamation/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/financial-framework-legislation-amendment-act-no-1-2007-proclamation/documents"}}
