The PCO must publish—
- all introduced Bills (and those amendments to Bills that the Attorney-General directs); and
- all Acts; and
- all secondary legislation drafted by the PCO; and
- minimum legislative information for all secondary legislation drafted by the PCO.
The PCO must also notify the making of that secondary legislation by publishing the information required by regulations in the Gazette.

- subsections (1)(d) and (2) apply; and
- section 71 (how and when legislation must be published by PCO) applies; and
- any obligation under any other legislation for the secondary legislation to be published or notified in the Gazette is treated as satisfied.
