7Identifying defined terms

#### 7 Identifying defined terms (1) The Dictionary in section 9 includes a definition for each term that is defined in this Act, except: (a) a term that is defined for the purposes of a single section or part of a single section; and (b) a term that is defined for the purposes of Chapter 10 (transitional provisions) or Schedule 4 (transfer of financial institutions and friendly societies); and (c) a term that is defined for the purposes of Schedule 2 (the Insolvency Practice Schedule). In some cases, the definition is a signpost to another provision or Act which defines the term. > Note 1: An example for paragraph (a) is a definition that is expressed as being for the purposes of a section or subsection. > Note 2: Schedule 2 also has its own Dictionary: see section 5‑5 of Schedule 2\. Subject to Schedule 2, the Dictionary in section 9 also has effect for the purposes of Schedule 2. > Note 3: This Part, including the Dictionary in section 9, also has effect for the purposes of the ASIC Act: see subsection 5(2) of that Act. (2) Within a definition, the defined term is identified by bold italics. > Note: This Act also uses bold italics to “tag” a concept with a label for use as a narrative device. (3) To the extent that a term used in a provision is not defined in this Act, it has its ordinary meaning. > Note: Example 1: The definition of complaint in section 9 defines the term only in Part 7.8A. The term has it its ordinary meaning in all other Parts of this Act. > Note: Example 2: The definition of participant in section 9 defines the term only in relation to a clearing and settlement facility and in relation to a financial market. The term has it its ordinary meaning when used in relation to all other persons and things.
