Note 2 These Regulations must be made in accordance with the Agreement (see subparagraph 3 (b) (ii) of the NTC Act).

Note 3 These Regulations are not subject to disallowance — see the Legislative Instruments Act 2003, subsection 44 (2) (table, item 44) and the Legislative Instruments Regulations 2004, regulation 8 and Schedule 2 item 7.

In that form, they were approved by the Australian Transport Council on, respectively, 30 June 2003 and 12 September 2003. As approved by the Council, they included no formal provisions such as citation, commencement or amendment provisions.
