3 Road transport legislation—heavy vehicles registration

For section 7 of the National Transport Commission Act 2003 (the NTC Act), Schedule 1 sets out road transport legislation, in the form of Regulations, about the registration of heavy vehicles.

Note 1: The road transport legislation set out in Schedule 1 does not have the force of law (see paragraph 7(2)(a) of the NTC Act).

Note 2: These Regulations must be made in accordance with the Agreement (see subparagraph 3(b)(ii) of the NTC Act).

Note 3: These Regulations are not subject to disallowance—see regulations made for the purposes of paragraph 44(2)(b) of the Legislation Act 2003.

Note 4: These Regulations are not subject to sunsetting—see regulations made for the purposes of paragraph 54(2)(b) of the Legislation Act 2003.

Note 5: The text set out in Schedule 1 is that of the proposed Road Transport Reform (Heavy Vehicles Registration) Regulations. Those proposed Regulations were prepared in the form of Regulations to be made under the Road Transport Reform (Heavy Vehicles Registration) Act 1997, and were approved in that form by the Ministerial Council for Road Transport on 9 October 1996, but were never actually made as Regulations. The text set out in Schedule 1 is that of those proposed Regulations as approved by the Council. It has been formatted in accordance with current drafting practice (including styles of provision numbering and cross‑referencing) but is otherwise unaltered.
