Tasmania act
This Act amends the Sentencing Act 1997 by incorporating changes (labelled as amendments) into the authorised version and takes effect on the day it receives Royal Assent. The amendment period is time‑limited: the Act automatically repeals one year after commencement. It affects courts, offenders and victims because it alters the legal rules judges use when sentencing; the text supplied does not set out the specific amendments, so the exact legal effects depend on the incorporated changes.
