42Application of Commonwealth laws in relation to offences against applicable provisions of other jurisdictions

#### 42 Application of Commonwealth laws in relation to offences against applicable provisions of other jurisdictions (1) The Commonwealth laws apply, as laws for the government of the Capital Territory, in relation to an offence against the applicable provisions of another jurisdiction as if those provisions were laws of the Commonwealth and were not laws of that other jurisdiction. (2) The Commonwealth laws that extend to an external Territory apply, as laws for the government of that Territory, in relation to an offence against the applicable provisions of a jurisdiction other than the Capital Territory as if those provisions were laws of the Commonwealth and were not laws of that jurisdiction. (3) A Commonwealth law, as applying because of subsection (1) or (2), does not require, prohibit, empower, authorise, or otherwise provide for, the doing of an act outside the Capital Territory, or the external Territory concerned, as the case may be. (4) The effect that a Commonwealth law has because of subsection (1) or (2) is additional to, and does not prejudice, the effect that the Commonwealth law otherwise has.
