9 Regulations

(1) The Governor may make regulations, not inconsistent with this Act, for or with respect to any matter that by this Act is required or permitted to be prescribed or that is necessary or convenient to be prescribed for carrying out or giving effect to this Act.

(2) The regulations may contain provisions of a savings or transitional nature consequent on the enactment of this Act or any Act that amends this Act.

(3) Any such provision has effect despite anything to the contrary in Schedule 4 (Land transfers—ancillary and special provisions). The regulations may make separate savings and transitional provisions or amend Schedule 4 to consolidate the savings and transitional provisions.

(4) Any such provision may, if the regulations so provide, take effect from the date of assent to the Act concerned or a later date.

(5) To the extent to which any such provision takes effect from a date that is earlier than the date of its publication on the NSW legislation website, the provision does not operate so as:

(a) to affect, in a manner prejudicial to any person (other than the State or an authority of the State), the rights of that person existing before the date of its publication, or

(b) to impose liabilities on any person (other than the State or an authority of the State) in respect of anything done or omitted to be done before the date of its publication.
