### sch.3-sec.65 Continuing obligation to give a person notice of existence of a fact
This section applies if—
a person is required under a previous provision of a repealed Act or the amended Act to give a person notice of the existence of a fact; and
there is no corresponding provision for the previous provision; and
immediately before the commencement, the person had not given the notice.
The obligation to give the notice continues to apply according to its terms as if this Act had not been enacted.
Under the Apiaries Act 1982 , previous section 23, a beekeeper is required to notify an inspector of the presence of a disease as defined under that Act within 48 hours after becoming aware of or suspecting the existence of the disease. If the disease is not prohibited matter or category 1 or category 2 restricted matter under this Act, and the Apiaries Act 1982 is repealed before the 48 hours ends, the obligation to report the presence of the disease continues to apply to the beekeeper despite the repeal of the Apiaries Act 1982 and even though the beekeeper is not required to report the presence of the disease under this Act.
