It has been in force in its current form since 4 August 2004, though a table of amending instruments exists, suggesting minor amendments may have occurred. Without the substantive text, a definitive scope assessment cannot be made."},"complexity_factors":["The document as provided contains only metadata and status information — no substantive legal content is visible to analyse","The parent Act (Roads and Jetties Act 1935) is a relatively straightforward piece of Tasmanian infrastructure legislation","Proclamations are typically narrow and specific instruments, not complex regulatory frameworks","Without the actual proclaimed content, true complexity cannot be fully assessed"],"plain_english_summary":"This is a Tasmanian Government proclamation made under the Roads and Jetties Act 1935 (in force 4 Aug 2004) that formally declares or classifies roads or jetties. Such proclamations can shift maintenance and regulatory responsibility and affect legal rights for nearby property owners, local councils and users of the named infrastructure. The provided document lacks the proclamation’s substantive schedule (which roads/jetties and exact changes are declared), so its practical effects can’t be determined here."},"flash_summary":{"complexity_score":2,"scope_assessment":{"changed":false,"description":"On its face Schedule 2 confines itself to naming and locating ten places of access (distances and road side). It specifies locations rather than creating new powers or substantive obligations. The schedule does not, within its text, alter the broader scope of the Roads and Jetties Act 1935; implementation details (maintenance, enforcement, cost-bearing) are not set out here."},"complexity_factors":["Enumerative form: Schedule 2 simply lists 10 named access points with distances and side (north/south).","Measurement precision: distances are stated relative to the eastern abutment of Pipers River Bridge, requiring accurate surveying to locate on the ground.","Lack of operational detail: the schedule does not specify enforcement, signage, maintenance responsibilities or cost allocation, leaving implementation discretion to administering authorities.","Stakeholder effects: designation affects landowners and road users but the schedule does not state compensating arrangements or obligations, so transaction or compliance costs may fall to local parties or the road authority.","Low statutory complexity but moderate administrative burden: easy to read legally, but requires mapping, surveying and possible physical works to implement.","Possible dispute risk: fixed linear measurements can produce boundary or location disputes if on-ground features have shifted or are ambiguously measured."],"plain_english_summary":"This proclamation (Schedule 2) designates ten specific roadside access points measured in kilometres west of the eastern abutment of Pipers River Bridge and records whether each is on the north or south side. It fixes the legally recognised locations of access and therefore affects local landowners, road users and the road authority by specifying where official access is recognised and where management, signage or maintenance will be applied."},"kimi_summary":{"content_quality":"ok","complexity_score":1,"scope_assessment":{"changed":false,"description":"This appears to be a straightforward administrative proclamation serving its original intended purpose: to declare specific places of access under the Roads and Jetties Act 1935.

It lists **10 specific locations** where people can access a particular road—likely a major highway or arterial road.\n\n**What it does:**\n- Sets out exact points where vehicles or pedestrians can enter or exit a road corridor\n- Each access point is identified by:\n  - A road name (e.g., Weymouth Road, School Road)\n  - Which side of the main road it's on (north or south)\n  - Its precise distance from a fixed reference point (the eastern end of Pipers River Bridge)\n\n**Who it affects:**\n- Local residents, farmers, and businesses who need to access properties along this stretch of road\n- Road users who need to know where legal entry/exit points are located\n- Local councils and road authorities responsible for maintaining these access points\n\n**Why it matters:**\nThis creates a legal record of where access is permitted. This is important for:\n- **Property rights**: Ensuring landowners have legal access to their properties\n- **Road safety**: Controlling where traffic can enter/exit to prevent dangerous uncontrolled access points\n- **Planning**: Preventing disputes about whether a particular driveway or track is a legal road entrance\n\nThe distances are measured from the Pipers River Bridge, suggesting this applies to a specific corridor—likely the Tasman Highway or a similar major route in northern Tasmania near the Pipers River area."},"issue_detection":{"absurdities":[],"contradictions":[]}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/tas-sr-2004-065","history":"/api/acts/tas-sr-2004-065/history","analysis":"/api/acts/tas-sr-2004-065/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/tas-sr-2004-065/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/tas-sr-2004-065/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/tas-sr-2004-065/documents"}}
