4 Act applies to convictions from other jurisdictions
(1) This Act applies not only to convictions for offences against the laws of Tasmania but also to convictions for offences against the laws of the other States, the laws of the Commonwealth and the laws of other countries.
(2) In their application to convictions for offences against the laws of other jurisdictions, the provisions of this Act may be construed with such changes as may be necessary to enable the provisions to apply to those convictions in the way that corresponds most closely to the way in which they apply to convictions for offences against the laws of Tasmania.
