2 Effect of amendment or repeal on acts done or decisions made

Except where expressly provided to the contrary, if this Act—

(a) amends a provision of an Act or an instrument, or

(b) repeals and re-enacts, with or without modification, a provision of an Act or an instrument,

an act done or decision made under the provision amended or repealed has effect after the amendment or repeal as if it had been done or made under the provision as amended or repealed.

Explanatory note

This section ensures that the amendment or repeal of a provision will not, unless expressly provided, vitiate any act done or decision made under the provision as in force before the amendment or repeal.
