Legislative Instruments Act 2003
The LIA established a Federal Register of Legislative Instruments as
a repository of Commonwealth legislative instruments, explanatory statements
and compilations, along with other initiatives, and took effect on 1 January
2005. Statements of Principles determined by the Authority are legislative
instruments for the purposes of this Act.
The Authority has undertaken the necessary administrative actions that
are required to enable it to meet its obligations under the LIA. The Authority
has ensured the registration of all new SOPs determined from 1 January
2005. The backcapture of all SOPs determined or amended by the Authority
between 1 January 2000 and 31 December 2004 was completed by the due date
of 31 December 2005. A program to register all remaining SOPs required
to be backcaptured by 31 December 2007 is in place, and a workplan to
ensure all SOPs are reviewed within the timeframes required to comply
with the sunsetting provisions included in the LIA has been established.
