Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This document is the official 'on switch' for the National Crime Authority Legislation Amendment Act 2001.

What it does: The Governor-General formally fixes the dates when different parts of the Amendment Act come into force (become legally active):

12 October 2001: Most of the new powers and rules start (Schedules 1–7 and 9–12).
13 October 2001: Just Schedule 8 starts—one day later than the rest, likely for administrative tidiness or to coordinate with other timing requirements.

Why it matters: Without this proclamation, the Amendment Act would sit dormant. This document activates the actual changes to the National Crime Authority's powers, but it doesn't contain those rules itself—it simply pulls the trigger.
