4 Application of laws in Commonwealth places
(1) The provisions of the laws of a State as in force at a time (whether before or after the commencement of this Act) apply, or shall be deemed to have applied, in accordance with their tenor, at that time in and in relation to each place in that State that is or was a Commonwealth place at that time.
(1A) Subsection (1) does not apply to the provisions of the laws of a State to the extent that those provisions have effect, as laws of the Commonwealth, under the Commonwealth Places (Mirror Taxes) Act 1998.
(2) This section does not:
(a) extend to the provisions of a law of a State to the extent that, if that law applied, or had applied, in or in relation to a Commonwealth place, it would be, or have been, invalid or inoperative in its application in or in relation to that Commonwealth place otherwise than by reason of the operation of section 52 of the Constitution in relation to Commonwealth places; or
(b) operate so as to make applicable the provisions of a law of a State in or in relation to a Commonwealth place if that law would not apply, or would not have applied, in or in relation to that place if it were not, or had not been, a Commonwealth place.
(3) To the extent that the laws of a State would, but for subsection (1) of this section, have, or have had, the same effect, at a particular time, with respect to an act, matter or thing having a connexion with a place in that State that is, or was, at that time, a Commonwealth place as they would have, or would have had, at that time, if the act, matter or thing did not have such a connexion, that subsection does not have effect with respect to the provisions of those laws.
(4) In so far as a law of a State has effect in another State, subsection (1) of this section operates to make the provisions of that law applicable in or in relation to a Commonwealth place in that other State.
(5) Subsection (1) of this section does not:
(a) have effect so as to impose any tax;
(b) have effect so as to confer any judicial power; or
(c) extend to the provisions of any law of a State in so far as it is not within the authority of the Parliament to make those provisions applicable in or in relation to a Commonwealth place.
(6) The regulations may provide that such of the provisions referred to in subsection (1) of this section as are specified in the regulations do not apply, or shall be deemed not to have applied, by reason of this section or so apply, or shall be deemed to have so applied, with such modifications as are specified in the regulations.
(7) Regulations shall not be made for the purpose of the last preceding subsection modifying the applied provisions in their application in or in relation to a Commonwealth place except in so far as the modifications are necessary or convenient to enable the applied provisions to operate in or in relation to that place.
(8) For the purposes of the last two preceding subsections, modification includes the omission or addition of a provision or the substitution of a provision for another provision.
(9) Any reference in a law of the Commonwealth (including the applied provisions) to a law of a State shall, if any part of the applied provisions corresponds to that law, be read as including a reference to that part.
(10) Any reference in the applied provisions to a law of a State shall, if there is not any part of the applied provisions that corresponds to that law, be read as a reference to that law.
(11) Any reference in a part of the applied provisions to a conviction, punishment, penalty or forfeiture under the applied provisions shall be deemed to include a reference to a conviction, punishment, penalty or forfeiture under the law of a State that corresponds to that part.
(12) Where:
(a) there is not in force an arrangement with the Governor of a State under subsection (2) of section 6 of this Act;
(b) a law of that State provides that an act may or shall be done by an authority of the State; and
(c) a part of the applied provisions corresponds to that law;
that authority is empowered to do that act under that part of the applied provisions.
(13) Without limiting the effect of any of the preceding provisions of this section, it is declared that the powers of a person under the applied provisions may be exercised in a Commonwealth place in a State in respect of an act done in that State notwithstanding that the act was not done in or in relation to that place and the applied provisions as having effect in or in relation to that place have effect in relation to anything done by a person in the exercise of a power referred to in this subsection.
(14) Without limiting the effect of any other law of the Commonwealth, it is declared that the powers of a person under the law of a State may be exercised in that State in respect of an act done in that State notwithstanding that the act was done in or in relation to a Commonwealth place and the provisions of the laws of the State have effect in relation to anything done by a person in the exercise of a power referred to in this subsection.
5 Application of certain provisions of Commonwealth Acts to applied provisions
(1) The Acts Interpretation Act 1901 does not apply in relation to the applied provisions.
(2) Sections 4A, 4AA, 4AB, 4B, 4D to 4K (inclusive) and 6 of the Crimes Act 1914 do not apply in relation to, or in relation to matters arising under, the applied provisions.
(2A) Part IC of the Crimes Act 1914 does not apply to a member of the police force of a State in relation to, or in relation to matters arising under, the applied provisions.
(2B) Chapter 2 of the Criminal Code does not apply in relation to, or in relation to matters arising under, the applied provisions.
(3) Where there is in force an arrangement with the Governor of a State under subsection (2) of the next succeeding section, the provisions of the Acts set out in the Schedule to this Act do not apply to or in relation to matters arising under the applied provisions having effect in or in relation to a Commonwealth place in that State.
(3A) However, subsection (3) does not prevent the application of a relevant Crimes Act provision in relation to an investigation by a member of the Australian Federal Police, or a special member, if the Commonwealth Place is a designated State airport.
(4) Paragraph 6(1)(e) of the Director of Public Prosecutions Act 1983 applies, in relation to a State to which subsection (3) applies, only to proceedings instituted under the applied provisions by:

(c) a person holding office under an Act or under a law of a Territory (other than the Northern Territory).
6 Arrangements with States
(1) Except as provided by the regulations made for the purpose of subsection (6) of section 4 of this Act, nothing in this Act has the effect of creating an office, body, court or other tribunal.
(2) The Governor‑General may make an arrangement with the Governor of a State for or in relation to the exercise or performance of a power, duty or function (not being a power, duty or function involving the exercise of judicial power) by an authority of the State under the applied provisions having effect in or in relation to a Commonwealth place in that State and, where such an arrangement is in force, the power, duty or function may or shall, as the case may be, be exercised or performed accordingly.
(3) The Governor‑General may make an arrangement with the Governor of a State with respect to any matter necessary or convenient for the purpose of carrying out or giving effect to this Act in or in relation to the State.
(4) An arrangement under this section may contain such incidental or supplementary provisions as the Governor‑General and the Governor of the State think necessary.
(5) The Governor‑General may arrange with the Governor of a State with whom an arrangement is in force under this section for the variation or revocation of the arrangement.
(6) A copy of each instrument by which an arrangement under this section has been made, varied or revoked shall be published in the Gazette.
7 Jurisdiction of State courts
(1) The several courts of a State are, within the limits of their several jurisdictions, whether those limits are as to subject matter or otherwise, but disregarding any limitation that exists by reason of a place being a Commonwealth place, invested with federal jurisdiction in all matters arising under the applied provisions as having, or as having had, effect in or in relation to a Commonwealth place.
(2) The regulations that may be made for the purpose of subsection (6) of section 4 of this Act include regulations having the effect that provisions as modified by the regulations make provision for and in relation to investing a court of a State with federal jurisdiction, whether within the limits of its jurisdiction or otherwise.
8 Conditions subject to which State courts are invested with federal jurisdiction

(2) Sections 39 and 68 of the Judiciary Act 1903‑1969, and any other law of the Commonwealth that was passed or made before the commencement of this Act, do not, and, unless the contrary intention appears, any law of the Commonwealth that is passed or made after the commencement of this Act does not, operate so as to invest a court of a State with federal jurisdiction in a matter arising under the applied provisions.
(3) Nothing in this Act affects the operation of section 38 of the Judiciary Act 1903‑1969.
(4) Sections 38A and 40A of the Judiciary Act 1903‑1969 do not apply in relation to a matter arising under the applied provisions or under a law of a State by reason only that it involves the application or interpretation of section 52 of the Constitution in relation to Commonwealth places.
(6) Sections 72 to 76 (inclusive) of the Judiciary Act 1903‑1969 do not apply to or in relation to a trial in a court of a State for an offence against any part of the applied provisions.

Where an act or omission gives, or gave, to a person a cause of action under a part of the applied provisions and also gives, or gave, to that person a cause of action under the law of a State to which that part corresponds and the cause of action under the law of the State has been extinguished, the cause of action under the applied provisions is also extinguished.
10 Validation of certain acts
Where an authority of a State or a person has purported to do an act under a law of a State in or in relation to a Commonwealth place and:
(a) that law was inapplicable by reason of the operation of section 52 of the Constitution in relation to that Commonwealth place; and

(a) that law is inapplicable by reason of the operation of section 52 of the Constitution in relation to Commonwealth places; and
(b) a part of the applied provisions corresponds to that law;
that reference has effect as if it were a reference to that part of the applied provisions.
12 Procedure in proceedings under the applied provisions
(1) Subject to this Act, proceedings (whether civil or criminal and whether original or appellate) under any part of the applied provisions shall be instituted and conducted in the same manner as though they were proceedings under the law of the State to which that part corresponds and all other proceedings in relation to any such proceedings (including declining to proceed further in a prosecution) shall also be taken as though the first‑mentioned proceedings were proceedings under that law.
(2) Where there is not in force an arrangement with the Governor of a State under subsection (2) of section 6 of this Act, the last preceding subsection does not prevent the institution or conduct, in accordance with a law of the Commonwealth other than this Act, of proceedings under any part of the applied provisions having effect in or in relation to Commonwealth places in that State.
(3) The trial on indictment of an offence against any part of the applied provisions shall be by jury.
13 Objection not allowable where two offences charged

14 Continuance of proceedings where place found to be a Commonwealth place
Where a person is charged with an offence against a law of a State and the court before which he or she is charged is satisfied that:
(a) that law is inapplicable by reason of the operation of section 52 of the Constitution in relation to Commonwealth places; and
(b) a part of the applied provisions corresponds to that law;
the proceedings shall be continued as though that person had been charged with the corresponding offence under that part of the applied provisions.
15 Proceedings on certain appeals
Where, on an appeal from a judgment, decree, order or sentence of a court of a State or Territory in proceedings under a law of a State, not being an appeal to the High Court, the court is satisfied that:
(a) that law was inapplicable by reason of the operation of section 52 of the Constitution in relation to Commonwealth places; and
(b) a part of the applied provisions corresponds to that law;
the court shall deal with the appeal as though the proceedings in relation to which the appeal was brought had been brought under that part of the applied provisions and the judgment, decree, order or sentence had been given or made in proceedings so brought.
16 Exceptions to appellate jurisdiction of High Court
Unless the High Court gives special leave to appeal, an appeal does not lie to the High Court from a judgment, decree, order or sentence of:
(a) a Justice of the High Court;
(b) a federal court other than the High Court; or
(c) a court of a State or Territory;
if any ground relied upon in support of the appeal involves a question as to the operation or interpretation of section 52 of the Constitution in relation to a place (not being the seat of government).

(2) Nothing in this section affects any power or function of the Governor‑General.
19 Savings
(1) If, by reason of a place ceasing, or having ceased, to be a Commonwealth place at a particular time, the applied provisions cease, or ceased, to have effect in or in relation to that place:
