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 It also includes information about any provision of the compiled law that has been repealed in accordance with a provision of the law.\n\nMisdescribed amendments\n\nA misdescribed amendment is an amendment that does not accurately describe how an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\n> Note: Endnote 2—Abbreviation key\n\n| ad = added or inserted                         | orig = original                          |\n| ---------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |\n| am = amended                                   | p = page(s)                              |\n| amdt = amendment                               | para = paragraph(s)/subparagraph(s)      |\n| C[x] = Compilation No. x                       | /sub‑subparagraph(s)                     |\n| ch = Chapter(s)                                | pres = present                           |\n| cl = clause(s)                                 | prev = previous                          |\n| cont. = continued                              | (prev…) = previously                     |\n| def = definition(s)                            | pt = Part(s)                             |\n| Dict = Dictionary                              | r = regulation(s)/Court 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                 | renum = renumbered                       |\n| exp = expires/expired or ceases/ceased to have | rep = repealed                           |\n| effect                                         | rs = repealed and substituted            |\n| gaz = gazette                                  | s = section(s)/subsection(s)             |\n| LA = Legislation Act 2003                      | /rule(s)/subrule(s)/order(s)/suborder(s) |\n| LIA = Legislative Instruments Act 2003         | sch = Schedule(s)                        |\n| (md not incorp) = misdescribed amendment       | SLI = Select Legislative Instrument      |\n| cannot be given effect                         | SR = Statutory Rules                     |\n| mod = modified/modification                    | sub ch = Sub‑Chapter(s)                  |\n| No. = Number(s)                                | sub div = Subdivision(s)                 |\n| Ord = Ordinance                                | sub pt = Subpart(s)                      |\n|                                                | underlining = whole or part not          |\n|                                                | commenced or to be commenced             |","sortOrder":0}],"analysis":{"flash_summary":{"complexity_score":2,"scope_assessment":{"changed":false,"description":"The supplied compilation text is metadata (endnotes, abbreviation key, amendment/legislation history guidance) and does not itself change the substantive scope of the underlying ADR.
