Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

These Regulations declare the Slovak Republic to be an extradition country under the Extradition Act 1988 and, for Slovakia only, replace the text ‘45 days’ with ‘60 days’ in paragraph 17(2)(a) as applied under paragraph 11(1)(b) of the Act. The instrument was made by the Governor‑General on advice of the Federal Executive Council (preamble). It does not itself set costs or procedural detail; it changes a deadline in the Act that will govern certain extradition-related steps between Australia and Slovakia (regs 4–5).
