About this republication

The republished law

, made under the Crimes (Sentencing) Act 2005

(including any amendment made under the Legislation Act 2001

, part 11.3 (Editorial changes)) as in force on 1 September 2024

. It also includes any commencement, amendment, repeal or expiry affecting this republished law to 1 September 2024

Editorial changes

The Legislation title="A2001-14">Legislation Act 2001

, part 11.3 authorises the Parliamentary Counsel to make editorial amendments and other changes of a formal nature when preparing a law for republication. Editorial changes do not change the effect of the law, but have effect as if they had been made by an Act commencing on the republication date (see “b title="A2001-14">Legislation Act 2001

, s 115 and s 117). The changes are made if the Parliamentary Counsel considers they are desirable to bring the law into line, or more closely into line, with current legislative drafting practice.

This republication includes amendments made under part 11.3 (see endnote 1).

If a provision of the republished law has not commenced, the symbol  U  appears immediately before the provision heading. Any uncommenced amendments that affect this republished law are accessible on the ACT legislation register (www.legislation.act.gov.au
