Queensland Consolidated Acts(1) This section applies if--
(a) a compulsory referendum has been held for the commission's proposed determination of the reviewable local government matter; and

(2) Within 7 sitting days after the Minister tables the commission's report on the matter, the Legislative Assembly may resolve that the Governor in Council be asked to make a regulation implementing the matter.
(3) If the Legislative Assembly resolves that the Governor in Council be asked to implement the matter, the Governor in Council must implement the matter as soon as practicable after the resolution is passed.
(4) If a regulation is made to implement the matter and the regulation is to commence on a later day fixed in it, for subsection (3), the matter must not be taken not to have been implemented as soon as practicable merely because of the later commencement.
Example of subsection (4)--
1 Because of the holding of quadrennial elections under this Act, or fresh elections under the regulation, the regulation may commence after its notification.
2 Because of financial implications, the regulation may commence at the start of a financial year.
