"What happens to government-owned companies when new rules start"

Illustration for Crown Entities Act 2004

When a new law starts, you might wonder what happens to companies that are already owned by the government. The law says that some rules in Subpart 3 of Part 2 do not apply to these companies for a while. This wait period is either 3 years after the rules start or a date chosen by the Minister of Finance, which they will announce in the Gazette, as long as it's within those 3 years.

You will not see these rules apply to these companies until the wait period is over. The Minister of Finance has some control over when the rules start for these companies. They can choose a date and tell everyone about it in the Gazette.
