12P Transitional provisions in relation to permissions etc
permission means:
(a) a relevant permission; or
(b) an authorisation referred to in Division 2 of Part 4 of these Regulations (as in force immediately before the commencement of this regulation); or
(c) a permission granted under regulation 37 or 45.
(2) A permission granted before the Zoning Plan came into operation continues to have the same force and effect (including authorising the relevant activity to be carried on in a particular area) as it had immediately before the Zoning Plan came into operation, except to any extent to which the authorised use or entry is contrary to the Zoning Plan.
(3) Such a permission continues to have effect (unless sooner surrendered or revoked) until the day on which it would have ceased to have effect if the Zoning Plan had not come into operation.
(4) A reference in a permission to a section of the Marine Park (as in effect under a Proclamation revoked by the Great Barrier Reef (Declaration of Amalgamated Marine Park Area) Proclamation 2004) has effect as a reference to the area covered by that section.
(5) A reference in a permission to a zone (as in effect under a zoning plan revoked by the Zoning Plan) mentioned in column 2 of an item of the following table is taken to be a reference to the zone mentioned in column 3 of the item:
