#### 88ZZA No permission for reef walking in Whitsunday Planning Area
(1) On and after the commencement of this regulation, a permission that purports to give permission for the activity of reef walking in the Whitsunday Planning Area does not have the effect of giving permission for the activity of reef walking in the Whitsunday Planning Area.
(2) Subregulation (1) applies whether the permission was granted or issued before, on or after the commencement of this regulation.
(3) Subregulation (1) does not affect a permission described in that subregulation so far as the permission deals with a matter other than the activity of reef walking in the Whitsunday Planning Area.
(4) Subregulation (1) affects the permission set out in permit G14/36918.1 for Luxury Yachting Pty Ltd (ACN 051 993 992) to carry out the activity of reef walking at Langford Reef only on and after 1 June 2020.
> Note: Subregulation (1) affects:
(a) the permission set out in that permit for reef walking in other places on and after the commencement of this regulation; and
(b) any permission arising from transfer or renewal of that permission (whether the transfer or renewal occurs before, on or after 1 June 2020).
Omitting references to reef walking from replacement permissions
(5) If, before, on or after the commencement of this regulation, a person:
(a) holds a permission (the old permission) described in subregulation (1); and
(b) applies (before or after the expiry of the old permission):
(i) to replace the old permission with a permission of the same kind; or
(ii) for a further permission of the same kind in relation to the same conduct;
subregulation (1) does not prevent subregulation 88H(1), 88ZC(1) or 88ZD(3) from operating in relation to the old permission and the replacement permission or further permission, even if the replacement permission or further permission does not purport to give permission for the activity of reef walking in the Whitsunday Planning Area but is otherwise of the same kind as the old permission.
> Note: Subregulations 88H(1), 88ZC(1) and 88ZD(3) operate if a replacement permission or further permission (applied for or granted) is of the same kind as an earlier permission.
Omitting references to reef walking from new permissions resulting from transfers
(6) If, before, on or after the commencement of this regulation, a person:
(a) holds a permission described in subregulation (1); and
(b) applies to transfer the permission;
and the Authority approves the transfer on or after that commencement, subregulation 88ZK(3) does not require the new permission to purport to give permission for the activity of reef walking in the Whitsunday Planning Area or to include any conditions relating to that activity in that area.
> Note: Subregulation 88ZK(3) generally requires the new permission to be of identical effect, and have identical conditions, to the permission held by the transferor.
