Australian Capital Territory Numbered Acts

INFORMATION PRIVACY ACT 2014 (NO. 24 OF 2014) - SECT 3

The dictionary at the end of this Act is part of this Act.

Note 1     The dictionary at the end of this Act defines certain terms used in this Act, and includes references ("signpost definitions") to other terms defined elsewhere.

For example, the signpost definition ‘"territory record", for schedule 1 (Territory privacy principles)—see the Territory Records Act 2002

, section 9 (3).' means that the term ‘territory record' is defined in that section and the definition applies to this Act.

Note 2     A definition in the dictionary (including a signpost definition) applies to the entire Act unless the definition, or another provision of the Act, provides otherwise or the contrary intention otherwise appears (see Legislation Act

, s 155 and s 156 (1)).
