Land Transport Act 1998

Repeals, amendments to other enactments, and transitional and savings provisions

229: Savings relating to rules and land transport strategies

You could also call this:

“Old rules and plans for transport are still valid under the new law”

You should know that any actions taken by the Minister before this section came into effect, related to proposed rules under the old Land Transport Act 1993, are now considered to have been taken under section 161(2) of the new Act before the rule was made.

Similarly, if the Minister took any actions related to a proposed national land transport strategy under the old Act, these are now treated as if they were done under section 171 of the new Act before the strategy was made.

Any national or regional land transport strategies that were already in place under the old Act when Part 13 of the new Act came into effect are still valid. They are treated as if they were made under the new Act.
