11 Ordinances not to be treated as inconsistent with Acts
Where: (a) an Ordinance is made before Self‑Government Day about a subject that, when the Ordinance is made, is dealt with by an Act; (b) the Ordinance does not commence before that Day; and (c) when the Ordinance commences, it is capable of operating concurrently with the Act as then in force; the Ordinance is not invalid merely because, at the time when it is made, it is inconsistent with the Act.
