3 Legislation history
This Act was originally a Commonwealth ordinance—the Married Persons’
Property Ordinance 1986 Ord1986-18 (Cwlth).
The Australian Capital Territory (Self-Government) Act 1988 (Cwlth), s 34 (4)
converted most former Commonwealth ordinances in force in the ACT into ACT
enactments. This allowed the ACT Legislative Assembly to amend and repeal the
laws. This Act was converted into an ACT enactment on 11 May 1989 (self-
government day).
As with most ordinances in force in the ACT, the name was changed from
Ordinance to Act by the Self-Government (Citation of Laws) Act 1989 A1989-21,
s 5 on 11 May 1989 (self-government day).
The name of the Act was later changed to the Married Persons Property Act 1986
under the Legislation Act 2001.
Before 11 May 1989, ordinances commenced on their notification day unless
otherwise stated (see Seat of Government (Administration) Act 1910 (Cwlth),
s 12).
