INTERPRETATION OF LEGISLATION ACT 1984 (ILA) Style changes Section 54A of the ILA authorises the making of the style changes set out in Schedule 1 to that Act. References to ILA s. 39B Sidenotes which cite ILA s. 39B refer to section 39B of the ILA which provides that where an undivided section or clause of a Schedule is amended by the insertion of one or more subsections or subclauses, the original section or clause becomes subsection or subclause (1) and is amended by the insertion of the expression "(1)" at the beginning of the original section or clause. Interpretation As from 1 January 2001, amendments to section 36 of the ILA have the following effects: • Headings All headings included in an Act which is passed on or after 1 January 2001 form part of that Act. Any heading inserted in an Act which was passed before 1 January 2001, by an Act passed on or after 1 January 2001, forms part of that Act. This includes headings to Parts, Divisions or Subdivisions in a Schedule; sections; clauses; items; tables; columns; examples; diagrams; notes or forms. See section 36(1A)(2A). • Examples, diagrams or notes All examples, diagrams or notes included in an Act which is passed on or after 1 January 2001 form part of that Act. Any examples, diagrams or notes inserted in an Act which was passed before 1 January 2001, by an Act passed on or after 1 January 2001, form part of that Act. See section 36(3A). • Punctuation All punctuation included in an Act which is passed on or after 1 January 2001 forms part of that Act. Any punctuation inserted in an Act which was passed before 1 January 2001, by an Act passed on or after 1 January 2001, forms part of that Act. See section 36(3B). • Provision numbers All provision numbers included in an Act form part of that Act, whether inserted in the Act before, on or after 1 January 2001. Provision numbers include section numbers, subsection numbers, paragraphs and subparagraphs. See section 36(3C). • Location of "legislative items" A "legislative item" is a penalty, an example or a note. As from 13 October 2004, a legislative item relating to a provision of an Act is taken to be at the foot of that provision even if it is preceded or followed by another legislative item that relates to that provision. For example, if a penalty at the foot of a provision is followed by a note, both of these legislative items will be regarded as being at the foot of that provision. See section 36B. • Other material Any explanatory memorandum, table of provisions, endnotes, index and other material printed after the Endnotes does not form part of an Act. See section 36(3)(3D)(3E). 2 Table of Amendments This publication incorporates amendments made to the **Fisheries Act 1995** by Acts and subordinate instruments. ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– **Fisheries (Amendment) Act 1996, No. 67/1996** | Assent Date: | 17.12.96 | | Commencement Date: | Ss 1, 2 on 17.12.96: s. 2(1); ss 3–5 on 31.3.97: Government Gazette 27.3.97 p. 665 | **Fisheries (Further Amendment) Act 1997, No. 5/1997** (as amended by No. 74/2000) | Assent Date: | 22.4.97 | | Commencement Date: | 22.4.97: s. 2 | **Public Sector Reform (Miscellaneous Amendments) Act 1998, No. 46/1998** | Assent Date: | 26.5.98 | | Commencement Date: | S. 7(Sch. 1) on 1.7.98: s. 2(2) | **Conservation, Forests and Lands (Miscellaneous Amendments) Act 1998, No. 76/1998** | Assent Date: | 10.11.98 | | Commencement Date: | S. 8 on 15.12.98: s. 2(5) | **Statute Law Revision Act 2000, No. 74/2000** | Assent Date: | 21.11.00 | | Commencement Date: | S. 3(Sch. 1 item 49) on 22.11.00: s. 2(1) | **Fisheries (Amendment) Act 2000, No. 80/2000** | Assent Date: | 28.11.00 | | Commencement Date: | Ss 3–8, 10–21 on 29.11.00: s. 2(1); s. 9 on 1.3.01:<br>Government Gazette 8.2.01 p. 168; s. 22 on 1.4.03: s. 2(4) | **Corporations (Consequential Amendments) Act 2001, No. 44/2001** | Assent Date: | 27.6.01 | | Commencement Date: | S. 3(Sch. item 46) on 15.7.01: s. 2 | **Fisheries (Further Amendment) Act 2002, No. 17/2002** | Assent Date: | 21.5.02 | | Commencement Date: | Ss 5–31 on 22.5.02: s. 2(1); ss 3, 4 on 1.7.03: s. 2(3) | **National Parks (Marine National Parks and Marine Sanctuaries) Act 2002, No. 40/2002** | Assent Date: | 18.6.02 | | Commencement Date: | Ss 25–27 on 16.11.02: s. 2 | **Seafood Safety Act 2003, No. 24/2003** | Assent Date: | 13.5.03 | | Commencement Date: | S. 93 on 1.7.03: Government Gazette 26.6.03 p. 1548 | **Fisheries (Amendment) Act 2003, No. 56/2003** | Assent Date: | 16.6.03 | | Commencement Date: | Ss 3, 4 on 17.6.03: s. 2 | **Forests and National Parks Acts (Amendment) Act 2003, No. 97/2003** | Assent Date: | 2.12.03 | | Commencement Date: | S. 11 on 3.12.03: s. 2 | **Fisheries (Further Amendment) Act 2003, No. 108/2003** (as amended by No. 22/2004) | Assent Date: | 9.12.03 | | Commencement Date: | Ss 3, 4, 6, 7, 9–21, 23–28, 29(1)(2), 32–43, 45, 47–50 on 10.12.03: s. 2(1); s. 44 on 1.4.04: s. 2(4); ss 31, 46 on 1.4.04: s. 2(5); s. 5 on 8.4.04: Government Gazette 8.4.04 p. 789; ss 29(3), 30 on 31.12.04: s. 2(6) | **Crimes (Controlled Operations) Act 2004, No. 16/2004** (as amended by Nos 69/2004, 87/2005) | Assent Date: | 18.5.04 | | Commencement Date: | Ss 48, 49 on 2.11.08: Government Gazette 30.10.08 p. 2530 | **Primary Industries Legislation (Miscellaneous Amendments) Act 2004, No. 22/2004** | Assent Date: | 18.5.04 | | Commencement Date: | Ss 6–8 on 19.5.04: s. 2(1) | **Primary Industries Legislation (Further Miscellaneous Amendments) Act 2004, No. 69/2004** | Assent Date: | 19.10.04 | | Commencement Date: | Ss 3–13, 15–17, 20, 21 on 20.10.04: s. 2(1); ss 14, 18, 19 on 1.7.06: s. 2(5) | **Public Administration Act 2004, No. 108/2004** | Assent Date: | 21.12.04 | | Commencement Date: | S. 117(1)(Sch. 3 item 79) on 5.4.05: Government Gazette 31.3.05 p. 602 | **Legal Profession (Consequential Amendments) Act 2005, No. 18/2005** | Assent Date: | 24.5.05 | | Commencement Date: | S. 18(Sch. 1 item 44) on 12.12.05: Government Gazette 1.12.05 p. 2781 | **Primary Industries Acts (Amendment) Act 2005, No. 50/2005** | Assent Date: | 24.8.05 | | Commencement Date: | Ss 13–15 on 25.8.05: s. 2(1) | **Fisheries (Abalone) Act 2005, No. 58/2005** | Assent Date: | 20.9.05 | | Commencement Date: | S. 11 on 20.9.05: s. 2(1); ss 3–10, 12, 13 on 1.4.06: s. 2(3) | **National Parks (Otways and Other Amendments) Act 2005, No. 60/2005** | Assent Date: | 20.9.05 | | Commencement Date: | Ss 29–31 on 21.9.05: s. 2(1) | **Primary Industries Acts (Miscellaneous Amendments) Act 2006, No. 34/2006** | Assent Date: | 13.6.06 | | Commencement Date: | Ss 3–5 on 14.6.06: s. 2 | **Public Sector Acts (Further Workplace Protection and Other Matters) Act 2006, No. 80/2006** | Assent Date: | 10.10.06 | | Commencement Date: | S. 26(Sch. item 40) on 11.10.06: s. 2(1) | **Fisheries Amendment Act 2007, No. 51/2007** | Assent Date: | 17.10.07 | | Commencement Date: | Ss 3(1), 4–6, 9(1), 10–13 on 18.10.07: s. 2(1); ss 3(2), 7, 8, 9(2) on 2.3.09: Government Gazette 5.2.09 p. 200 | **Primary Industries Legislation Amendment Act 2009, No. 35/2009** (as amended by No. 36/2009) | Assent Date: | 30.6.09 | | Commencement Date: | Ss 27–75 on 1.7.09: s. 2(1) | **Criminal Procedure Amendment (Consequential and Transitional Provisions) Act 2009, No. 68/2009** | Assent Date: | 24.11.09 | | Commencement Date: | S. 97(Sch. item 58) on 1.1.10: Government Gazette 10.12.09 p. 3215 | **Statute Law Amendment (Evidence Consequential Provisions) Act 2009, No. 69/2009** | Assent Date: | 24.11.09 | | Commencement Date: | S. 54(Sch.
