not provide sufficiently for a matter or issue of a transitional nature that
arises as a result of the amendment of an Act by this Act or the coming into
operation of this Act, the Governor may make regulations prescribing all
matters that are required, necessary or convenient to be prescribed for
providing for that matter or issue.
(2) If regulations
made under subsection (1) provide that a specified state of affairs is
taken to have existed, or not to have existed, on and from a day that is
earlier than the day on which the regulations are published in the Gazette but
not earlier than the commencement day, the regulations have effect according
to their terms.
(3) In
subsection (2) —
“specified” means specified or
described in the regulations.
(4) If regulations
contain a provision referred to in subsection (2), the provision does not

authority of the State) the rights of that person existing before the day of
