Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This document is a formal commencement proclamation that brings two parts of an existing law into effect.

What it does:

Sets the start date: It officially declares that 1 December 2003 is the day when Schedules 1 and 2 of the Product Stewardship (Oil) Legislation Amendment Act (No. 1) 2003 begin to operate.
Triggers the law: This proclamation doesn't create new rules itself; it acts as the 'on switch' for amendments that were already passed by Parliament but weren't yet active.

Why it matters: Without this document, the changes to Australia's oil recycling and stewardship scheme would remain dormant on the statute books. This proclamation makes the amendments legally enforceable from 1 December 2003.
