What the reprint includes

 

 

Endnotes, Compilation table, and Table of provisions that have not come into operation

1.Details about the original Act and legislation that has amended its text are shown in the Compilation table in endnote 1, at the back of the reprint. The table also shows any previous reprint.

2.Validation, transitional, savings, or other provisions identified in the Compilation table may be important. The table may refer to another endnote setting out the text of these provisions in full.

3.A table of provisions that have not come into operation, to be found in endnote 1a if it is needed, lists any provisions of the Act being reprinted that have not come into operation and any amendments that have not come into operation. The full text is set out in another endnote that is referred to in the table.

Notes amongst text (italicised and within square brackets)

1.If the reprint includes a section that was inserted, or has been amended, since the Act being reprinted was passed, editorial notes at the foot of the section give some history of how the section came to be as it is. If the section replaced an earlier section, no history of the earlier section is given (the full history of the Act is in the Compilation table).

Notes of this kind may also be at the foot of Schedules or headings.

2.The other kind of editorial note shows something has been —

·removed (because it was repealed or deleted from the law); or

·omitted under the Reprints Act 1984 s. 7(4) (because, although still technically part of the text, it no longer has any effect).

The text of anything removed or omitted can be found in an earlier reprint (if there is one) or one of the written laws identified in the Compilation table.

Kwinana‑Mundijong‑Jarrahdale Railway Act 1961

An Act to authorize the construction of a railway from Kwinana to Jarrahdale through Mundijong.

Be it enacted by the Queen’s Most Excellent Majesty, by and with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council and the Legislative Assembly of Western Australia, in this present Parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows: — 

1.Short title

This Act may be cited as the Kwinana‑Mundijong‑Jarrahdale Railway Act 1961.

2.Commencement

(1)This Act shall come into operation on a day to be fixed by proclamation.

(2)The Governor shall not make a proclamation bringing this Act into operation unless and until he is satisfied that the Company has,

in relation to the construction of that portion of the railway authorized to be constructed between Kwinana and Mundijong by this Act,

It shall be lawful to construct and maintain a railway, with all necessary, proper and usual works and conveniences in connection therewith, along the line described in the Schedule to this Act, but that portion of the railway authorized to be constructed between Mundijong and Jarrahdale by this Act shall not be so constructed unless and until the parties to the agreement have, pursuant to clause twenty‑eight thereof, agreed on the terms and conditions upon which that portion is to be so constructed.

5.Authority for deviation

Notwithstanding anything contained in the Public Works Act 1902, it shall be lawful to deviate from that portion of the line as described in the Schedule to this Act, which consists of the portion of the line from Mundijong to Jarrahdale to the extent of five miles on either side thereof, and to deviate for the balance of such line at a distance of one mile on either side thereof.
