Commonwealth legislation
This certificate delays the automatic repeal (sunsetting) of a group of 2014 aged‑care legislative instruments from 1 October 2024 to 1 October 2026 (s4). It keeps existing rules on subsidies, fees, quality, records and user rights in force for two extra years. Made under paragraph 51(1)(c) of the Legislation Act 2003 (s3), it affects aged‑care providers, care recipients and regulators by extending the period they must continue to comply; it changes timing only, not substantive content.
