Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This is a formal government notice (called a proclamation) that switches on specific parts of a maritime security law.

What it does:

Sets 30 September 2005 as the date when items 3 to 14 of Schedule 1 of the Maritime Transport Security Amendment Act 2005 come into force (become active law).

Who it affects:

Port operators, shipping companies, and maritime industry workers regulated under Australia's maritime transport security regime. The activated provisions likely expand security requirements for ships and ports.

Why it matters:

Without this proclamation, those specific legal changes would remain dormant. This document activates them, meaning the security amendments officially apply from 30 September 2005.
