General empowering provisions
41Secondary legislation may make consequential amendments to other secondary legislation
A power to make secondary legislation (the main secondary legislation) under one Act (the main Act) includes a power to make consequential amendments to other secondary legislation made by the same person (whether or not made under the same Act).
An amendment is consequential for the purposes of this section if it is consequential on the passing or making of either or both of the following:
- the main Act or any amendment to it:
- the main secondary legislation or any amendment to it.
The only facts, circumstances, or preconditions that must exist or be satisfied before the consequential amendments are made are those (if any) for making the main secondary legislation.
