71: References to Commission

You could also call this:

"Replacing 'Commission' with 'the regulator' in old laws and documents"

Illustration for Overseas Investment Act 2005

When you read other laws or documents that mention the Commission, you usually need to replace those words with "the regulator". This change happens after a specific part of the law, called section 63, starts being used. You make this change to any document that was already in use before this part of the law began.
