Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

What this document is: A formal proclamation (official government notice) that switches on specific sections of the National Vocational Education and Training Regulator Act 2011.

What it does: It sets 1 July 2011 as the date when sections 3 to 15 of that Act become legally active. These sections typically contain the core provisions that establish and empower the national vocational education regulator (now known as the Australian Skills Quality Authority, or ASQA).

Why it matters: This document acts as the "start button" for the national regulator. Without this proclamation, the legal authority to register training providers, audit course quality, and enforce standards across Australia's vocational education sector could not begin operating. It ensures the transition from state-based regulation to a national system happened on a specific, legally certain date.
