1/10 complexity

This is a commencement proclamation — a formal legal notice that activates part of an Act of Parliament. It declares that Schedule 1 of the Trade Practices Amendment (National Access Regime) Act 2006 comes into force on 1 October 2006.

Key points:

Signed: 7 September 2006 by the Governor-General (acting on Federal Executive Council advice)
Effect: The amendments in Schedule 1 become legally enforceable from 1 October 2006 onwards
Purpose: Provides legal certainty about exactly when the new rules start applying

This is an administrative instrument rather than the substantive law itself. It simply flips the switch on Schedule 1, allowing businesses, regulators, and courts to know the precise date the new access regime provisions become active.
