230: Savings relating to functions of Agency

You could also call this:

“Rules for keeping the Agency's old agreements and duties in place”

The Land Transport Act 1998 has a section that talks about keeping some things the same when it comes to what the Agency can do. Here’s what it means:

A notice that was put in a special book called the Gazette in 1993 is still valid. This notice gave the Agency extra jobs to do. It’s just as if the notice was given under a new part of the law.

The Agency had an agreement about how well it should do its job. This agreement was made under an old law. Now, it’s treated as if it was approved under the new law.

The Agency also had something called a service charter. This was a promise about how it would treat people. The old service charter is still good, just as if it was made under the new law.

These rules help make sure that important agreements and promises don’t disappear when the law changes. They keep things running smoothly even when new laws come in.
