The information includes commencement details for amending laws and details of any application, saving or transitional provisions that are not included in this compilation.\n\nThe amendment history in endnote 4 provides information about amendments at the provision (generally section or equivalent) level. It also includes information about any provision of the compiled law that has been repealed in accordance with a provision of the law.\n\nMisdescribed amendments\n\nA misdescribed amendment is an amendment that does not accurately describe how an amendment is to be made. If, despite the misdescription, the amendment can be given effect as intended, then the misdescribed amendment can be incorporated through an editorial change made under section 15V of the Legislation Act 2003.\n\nIf a misdescribed amendment cannot be given effect as intended, the amendment is not incorporated and “(md not incorp)” is added to the amendment history.\n\nEndnote 2—Abbreviation key\n\n| ad = added or inserted                         | orig = original                     |\n| ---------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------- |\n| am = amended                                   | par = paragraph(s)/subparagraph(s)  |\n| amdt = amendment                               | /sub‑subparagraph(s)                |\n| c = clause(s)                                  | pres = present                      |\n| C[x] = Compilation No. x                       | prev = previous                     |\n| Ch = Chapter(s)                                | (prev…) = previously                |\n| def = definition(s)                            | Pt = Part(s)                        |\n| Dict = Dictionary                              | r = regulation(s)/rule(s)           |\n| disallowed = disallowed by Parliament          | reloc = relocated                   |\n| Div = Division(s)                              | renum = renumbered                  |\n| exp = expires/expired or ceases/ceased to have | rep = repealed                      |\n| effect                                         | rs = repealed and substituted       |\n| F = Federal Register of Legislation            | s = section(s)/subsection(s)        |\n| gaz = gazette                                  | Sch = Schedule(s)                   |\n| LA = Legislation Act 2003                      | Sdiv = Subdivision(s)               |\n| LIA = Legislative Instruments Act 2003         | SLI = Select Legislative Instrument |\n| (md not incorp) = misdescribed amendment       | SR = Statutory Rules                |\n| cannot be given effect                         | Sub‑Ch = Sub‑Chapter(s)             |\n| mod = modified/modification                    | SubPt = Subpart(s)                  |\n| No. = Number(s)                                | underlining = whole or part not     |\n| o = order(s)                                   | commenced or to be commenced        |\n| Ord = Ordinance                                |                                     |\n\nEndnote 3—Legislation history\n\n| Name                                                                            | Registration                   | Commencement  | Application, saving and transitional provisions |\n| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------ | ------------- | ----------------------------------------------- |\n| Telecommunications (Type of Cabling Work) Declaration 2024                      | 4 March 2024(see F2024L00254)  | 5 March 2024  |                                                 |\n| Telecommunications (Labelling Notice -Consequential Amendments) Instrument 2025 | 21 March 2025(see F2025L00400) | 31 March 2025 |                                                 |\n|                                                                                 |                                |               |                                                 |\n|                                                                                 |                                |               |                                                 |\n\n> Note: Endnote 4—Amendment history\n\n```html\n<table cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" style=\"width:100%; border-collapse:collapse\"><thead><tr><td style=\"width:34.24%; border-top:1.5pt solid #000000; padding-right:5.4pt; padding-left:5.4pt; vertical-align:top\"><p class=\"ENoteTableHeading\"><span>Provision affected</span></p></td><td colspan=\"2\" style=\"border-top:1.5pt solid #000000; padding-right:5.4pt; padding-left:5.4pt; vertical-align:top\"><p class=\"ENoteTableHeading\"><span>How affected</span></p></td></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td colspan=\"2\" style=\"border-top:1.5pt solid #000000; padding-right:5.4pt; padding-left:5.4pt; vertical-align:top\"><p class=\"ENoteTableText\"><span>s.2</span><span style=\"width:104.29pt; font-family:'Lucida Console', monospace; display:inline-block\">.....................</span></p></td><td style=\"width:65.68%; border-top:1.5pt solid #000000; padding-right:5.4pt; padding-left:5.4pt; vertical-align:top\"><p class=\"ENoteTableText\"><span>rep.
