12Certain criminal laws not to apply

##### 12 Certain criminal laws not to apply (1) Nothing in this Act renders a provision of the criminal laws in force in a State or Territory applicable to or in relation to an act committed in a particular place: (a) in so far as the provision is incapable of applying in that place; (b) if those laws expressly provide that the provision does not extend to or apply in that place; or (c) if those laws expressly provide that the provision applies only in a specified locality in that State or Territory that does not include that place. (2) A provision of the criminal laws in force in a State or Territory shall not be taken to be a provision to which subsection (1) applies by reason only that it is limited in its application to acts committed within the territorial jurisdiction of the State or Territory or within the territorial or adjacent waters (however described) of the State or Territory.
