Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This Proclamation is the legal instrument that switches on the first parts of Australia's national commercial vessel safety law. It declares that sections 3 to 19 of the Marine Safety (Domestic Commercial Vessel) National Law Act 2012 will take effect on 1 July 2013.

These sections typically contain the foundational rules of the Act—such as definitions of key terms (like what counts as a "domestic commercial vessel"), the objectives of the national system, and the establishment of the regulatory framework for safety standards.

In practical terms, this document acts as the "start date" announcement, telling the maritime industry and regulators when these specific parts of the new national system officially begin operating.
