3 Road transport legislation—higher mass limits

For section 7 of the National Transport Commission Act 2003 (the NTC Act), Schedule 1 sets out road transport legislation, in the form of a Bill for an Act, about increased vehicle mass limits.

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 a draft Bill for an Act, Higher Mass Limits—Legislative Package, prepared for the former National Road Transport Commission. It was approved in that form by the Australian Transport Council on 10 March 2000, but was never actually enacted. The text set out in Schedule 1 has been formatted in accordance with current drafting practice (including styles of provision numbering and cross‑referencing).
