sec.95 Application of this Act or existing Act

This Act applies to an authority granted under another Act only if the application under the other Act for the authority was made on or after the commencement. An existing Act continues to apply to the following— an existing authority; an application for an authority under an existing Act that was made, but not dealt with, before the commencement; an authority granted under an existing Act on or after the commencement (a further existing authority ) as the result of an application mentioned in paragraph (b). For subsection (2), if a provision of an existing Act has been repealed by the Environmental Offsets Act 2014 , the existing Act as in force immediately before the commencement continues to apply unless a transitional regulation under this Act or the existing Act provides otherwise. If, after the commencement— an application is made under an existing Act to amend an existing authority or a further existing authority in relation to a prescribed activity; and the amendment may or is likely to result in a significant residual impact on a prescribed environmental matter; this Act applies to the application and the authority as amended (the amended authority ) to the extent a new environmental offset condition is imposed on the amended authority. Without limiting section 96, a regulation made under that section may provide for the way this Act or the existing Act applies, or does not apply, to an application mentioned in subsection (4) and an amended authority.
