This keeps the law up-to-date by forcing regular review of old rules.\n\n**The change**\n- **Before**: The regulations were scheduled to expire on **1 October 2019**\n- **After**: They will now expire on **1 October 2021**\n\n**Why it matters**\nThis deferral gives the government breathing room to review the regulations governing the Sydney Harbour Federation Trust—which manages former defence and industrial land around Sydney Harbour—without the rules suddenly vanishing. It prevents a legal gap while deciding whether to remake, amend, or scrap the regulations.\n\n**Self-destruct clause**\nThis certificate automatically cancels itself on **2 October 2021** (the day after the regulations finally expire)."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/legislation-deferral-of-sunsetting-sydney-harbour-federation-trust-regulations-certificate-2019","history":"/api/acts/legislation-deferral-of-sunsetting-sydney-harbour-federation-trust-regulations-certificate-2019/history","analysis":"/api/acts/legislation-deferral-of-sunsetting-sydney-harbour-federation-trust-regulations-certificate-2019/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/legislation-deferral-of-sunsetting-sydney-harbour-federation-trust-regulations-certificate-2019/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/legislation-deferral-of-sunsetting-sydney-harbour-federation-trust-regulations-certificate-2019/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/legislation-deferral-of-sunsetting-sydney-harbour-federation-trust-regulations-certificate-2019/documents"}}
