39 Extra-territorial operation
(1) It is the intention of the Parliament of Tasmania that the operation of this Act should, as far as possible, include operation in relation to the following:
(a) things situated in or outside the territorial limits of the State;
(b) acts, transactions and matters done, entered into or occurring in or outside the territorial limits of the State;
(c) things, acts, transactions and matters (wherever situated, done, entered into or occurring) that would, apart from this Act, be governed or otherwise affected by the law of another State, a Territory, the Commonwealth or a foreign country.
(2) Without limiting subsection (1) , it is the intention of the Parliament of Tasmania that the provisions of this Act operate in relation to the things, acts, transactions and matters referred to in that subsection even if the rules of private international law (whether at general law or as provided by legislation) would require the application of a law other than this Act instead of the provisions of this Act.
