Australian Capital Territory Numbered Acts Australian Capital Territory Numbered Acts(1) The Commonwealth administrative laws apply as laws of the Territory to any matter arising in relation to the applied provisions as if those provisions were a law of the Commonwealth and not a territory law.
Note Subsection (4) contains an exception to s (1).
(2) For the purposes of a territory law, a matter arising in relation to the applied provisions—
(a) is taken to be a matter arising in relation to the laws of the Commonwealth in the same way as it would if the applied provisions were a law of the Commonwealth; and
(b) is taken not to be a matter arising in relation to the laws of the Territory.
(3) However, a regulation may modify the operation of subsection (2).
(4) A provision of a Commonwealth administrative law applied under subsection (1) that purports to give jurisdiction to a federal court is taken not to have that effect.
