2 Public Sector Management Act 1994 s. 99 deleted by the Public Sector Reform Act 2010 s. 57.

3 The Western Australian Land Authority Amendment Act 1998 s. 19(3) and (4) read as follows:


(3) Despite subsections (1) and (2), on and from the commencement of this Act —

(a) a memorial registered or deemed to be registered under Part 4 before the commencement of this Act remains of effect, and may be withdrawn and registered again under Part 4, as if the Part had not been repealed;

(b) the functions of a relevant official under Part 4 in relation to memorials are to be performed as if the Part had not been repealed;

(c) a pending memorial —

(i) may be registered under Part 4;

(ii) has effect after registration as if Part 4 had not been repealed; and

(iii) may be withdrawn and registered again under Part 4,

as if the Part had not been repealed; and

(d) Part 4 and section 46 continue to apply and have effect in relation to any memorial referred to in paragraph (a) or (c) and to offences and other matters related to the memorial.

(4) In subsection (3) —

pending memorial means a memorial in respect of any land disposed of by the Authority pursuant to a transaction entered into before the commencement of this Act;

relevant official has the same meaning as it had under the Western Australian Land Authority Act 1992 immediately before the commencement of this Act.


4 The Western Australian Land Authority Amendment Act 1998 s. 20(2) reads as follows:


(2) Section 32 as inserted by subsection (1) —

(a) does not apply to a deed or other instrument that —

(i) has been signed or sealed by or on behalf of all parties that are required to do so; or

(ii) evidences a transaction that was completed,

before the commencement of this Act; and

(b) subject to paragraph (a), applies in respect of any duty, tax, rate or other impost the Authority becomes liable to and chargeable with after the commencement of this Act but not otherwise.


5 Repealed by the WADC and WA Exim Corporation Repeal Act 1998.

6 Lands Titles Office diagrams are now being held by the Western Australian Land Information Authority (see the Land Information Authority Act 2006 s. 100).

7 The Superannuation and Family Benefits Act 1938 was repealed by the State Superannuation Act 2000 s. 39, but its provisions continue to apply to and in relation to certain schemes because of the State Superannuation (Transitional and Consequential Provisions) Act 2000 s. 26. See also note 14.

8 Under the Land Administration Act 1997 s. 281(3), a reference to the Land Act 1933 in a written law is, unless the contrary is intended, to be read and construed as a reference to the Land Administration Act 1997. The reference was changed under the Reprints Act 1984 s. 7(3)(g).

9 Under the Financial Management (Transitional Provisions) Act 2006 s. 19 a reference in a written law or document or instrument to the Financial Administration and Audit Act 1985 may, where the context so requires, be read as if it had been amended to be a reference to the Financial Management Act 2006 or to the Auditor General Act 2006, or to both those Acts, as the case requires.

10 The Western Australian Land Authority Amendment Act 1998 s. 7(2) is a savings provision of no further effect.

11 The Western Australian Land Authority Amendment Act 1998 s. 18(2), (3) and (4) are transitional provisions of no further effect.

12 The Western Australian Land Authority Amendment Act 2004 s. 12(2)-(8) read as follows:


(2) The person who was the chief executive officer immediately before the commencement of this section continues in office, under and subject to the WALA Act, as the chief executive officer as if that person had been appointed by the board.

(3) Other people who were in the employment of the Authority immediately before the commencement of this section continue, under and subject to the WALA Act, as members of staff of the Authority.

(4) Except as otherwise agreed by the chief executive officer or member of staff, the remuneration, existing or accrued rights, rights under a superannuation scheme or continuity of service of the chief executive officer or a member of staff of the Authority are not affected, prejudiced or interrupted by —

(a) the operation of subsection (2) or (3); or

(b) the Authority ceasing to be an SES organisation under the Public Sector Management Act 1994.

(5) A person mentioned in subsection (2) or (3) is to be regarded as an employee of an organisation for the purposes of Part 6 of the Public Sector Management Act 1994.

(6) Subsection (5) ceases to apply at the expiration of 2 years after the commencement of this section.

(7) A person mentioned in subsection (3) is to be regarded as having been engaged under section 11 of the WALA Act.

(8) Where this section uses a term that is given a meaning in the WALA Act, the term has that meaning in this section.


13 The Western Australian Land Authority Amendment Act 2004 s. 18(2) is a transitional provision of no futher effect.

14 As at the date on which this reprint was prepared, the State Superannuation (Transitional and Consequential Provisions) Act 2000 s. 72 had not come into operation. It reads as follows:


72. Western Australian Land Authority Act 1992 amended

Clause 2(4) in Schedule 4 to the Western Australian Land Authority Act 1992 is amended by deleting “(including rights under the Superannuation and Family Benefits Act 1938)”.


15 The amendment in the State Superannuation Amendment Act 2007 s. 88 is not included because it was repealed by the State Superannuation Amendment Act 2011 s. 4 before the amendment purported to come into operation.
