2      Dictionary

The dictionary at the end of these regulations is part of these regulations.

Note 1     The dictionary at the end of these regulations defines certain words and expressions used in these regulations, and includes references ( signpost definitions ) to other words and expressions defined elsewhere in these regulations or in other legislation, the building code or the Australian standards.

    For example, the signpost definition ‘ registered construction practitioner —see the Construction Practitioners Registration Act 1998, section 3' means that the expression ‘registered construction practitioner' is defined in section 3 of that Act and the definition applies to these regulations.

Note 2     A definition in the dictionary (including a signpost definition) applies to the entire regulations unless the definition, or another provision of the regulations, provides otherwise or the contrary intention otherwise appears (see Interpretation Act 1967 , s 11F and s 11G).
