Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This is a short administrative instrument that cancels an earlier declaration about the Torres Strait Regional Authority (TSRA). Specifically, it revokes the Torres Strait Regional Authority Section 142S Declaration 2008, which likely related to the Authority's powers or jurisdiction under the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Act 2005.

The declaration works like a formal 'delete' button for outdated legal paperwork:

It takes effect the day after it is registered on the Federal Register of Legislative Instruments
It immediately cancels the 2008 Declaration
It then automatically expires the day after it starts (as if it had been revoked by another instrument)

This kind of 'self-destructing' instrument is common for purely administrative tasks where no ongoing legal framework is needed once the revocation is done.
