        (1)         The Minister may, by order published in the Gazette, vary the conditions to which an emergency dealing determination is subject, including by imposing new conditions, if the Minister administering section 72E of the Commonwealth Act has made, or is proposing to make, the same variation to the corresponding Commonwealth emergency dealing determination.

        (2)         The Minister may, by order published in the Gazette, suspend or revoke an emergency dealing determination if the Minister administering section 72E of the Commonwealth Act has suspended or revoked, or is proposing to suspend or revoke, (as the case requires) the corresponding Commonwealth emergency dealing determination.

            (b)         in any other case—on the day specified by the Minister in the variation, suspension or revocation.

        (4)         The day specified as mentioned in subsection (3)(b) must not be earlier than 30 days after the day on which the variation, suspension or revocation is made.
