46A Construction of provisions relating to entities representing, or not representing, the Crown (1) If, in an Act or subordinate instrument, it is provided that an entity represents the Crown, that entity has, for all purposes, the status, privileges and immunities of the Crown, unless the contrary intention appears. (2) If, in an Act or subordinate instrument, it is provided that an entity does not represent the Crown, that entity does not have, for any purpose, the status, privileges and immunities of the Crown, unless the contrary intention appears. (3) The fact that no provision of a kind referred to in subsection (1) or (2) is made by any Act or subordinate instrument with respect to a particular entity does not of itself give rise to any implication as to whether or not the entity has, or does not have, the status, privileges and immunities of the Crown for any purpose. (4) In this section ***Crown*** includes the State.
