(2) If the matter is the subject of a delayed implementation reference and the commission makes a determination to implement the matter, the commission--
(a) must determine the matter be implemented on the conclusion of the election, at the next quadrennial elections, of all councillors for the local governments affected by the determination to implement the matter; and
(b) must determine not to implement a reviewable local government matter mentioned in section 64(1)(g), (h), (i) or (k) for the local governments or the local governments' areas.
(3) If the matter is a reviewable local government matter mentioned in section 64(1)(c) (other than a matter the subject of a delayed implementation reference) for a local government area that is divided, the commission may determine the matter be implemented on the conclusion of the election, at the next quadrennial elections, of all councillors for the local governments affected by the determination only if--
(a) the commission is satisfied it is appropriate to delay implementing the matter having regard to the delayed implementation issues for the matter; and
(b) the commission determines not to implement a reviewable local government matter mentioned in section 64(1)(g), (h), (i) or (k) for the local governments or the local governments' areas.
(4) Also, if the matter is a matter mentioned in section 64(1)(c) (the first matter) and the commission makes a determination to implement the first matter, the commission may, if it is satisfied it is appropriate for another reviewable local government matter mentioned in section 64(1)(g) or (h) included in the reference of the first matter, make a determination to implement the other matter only so far as the other matter relates to all of the divisions of a local government area directly affected by the determination of the first matter.

(6) For subsection (4), a division of a local government area is directly affected by the determination of the first matter only if, under the determination--

(b) the division adjoins the excluded part; or
(c) the division adjoins a division mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
