This proclamation is the \"on switch\" that tells everyone — landowners, government agencies, lawyers — exactly when the new rules apply.\n- Without this document, the Act would sit unused. With it, amendments to Tasmania's land laws (things like property rights, planning, or land management) became legally enforceable from New Year's Day 2022.\n\n**Key takeaway:** Think of this as the official \"go live\" date announcement for a package of changes to Tasmanian land law."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/proclamation-under-the-land-miscellaneous-amendments-act-2021","history":"/api/acts/proclamation-under-the-land-miscellaneous-amendments-act-2021/history","analysis":"/api/acts/proclamation-under-the-land-miscellaneous-amendments-act-2021/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/proclamation-under-the-land-miscellaneous-amendments-act-2021/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/proclamation-under-the-land-miscellaneous-amendments-act-2021/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/proclamation-under-the-land-miscellaneous-amendments-act-2021/documents"}}
