Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

What this is: A formal proclamation (a legal instrument signed by the Governor-General) that switches on part of an existing law.

What it does: This document fixes 1 December 2006 as the day when Schedule 1 of the Australia-Japan Foundation (Repeal and Transitional Provisions) Act 2006 commences (starts operating).

Why it matters: By setting this date, the proclamation activates the repeal of the old Australia-Japan Foundation Act 1976 and triggers the transitional rules that manage the wind-up of the Foundation. Until this date was proclaimed, those parts of the Act sat dormant and had no legal effect.
