Corporations Act 2001
An event, circumstance or other thing:
(a) that occurred or arose before the commencement under or as mentioned in a provision of the old corporations legislation of a State or Territory in this jurisdiction; and
(b) that had a particular significance, status or effect for the purposes of a carried over provision of that legislation (including because of an interpretive provision);
has that same significance, status and effect after the commencement for the purposes of the provision of the new corporations legislation that corresponds to that carried over provision.
Note: So, for example:
Without limiting subsection (1), an event, circumstance or other thing had a particular significance for the purposes of a carried over provision of the old corporations legislation of a State or Territory in this jurisdiction if:
(a) the carried over provision created an obligation in respect of the event, circumstance or thing (whenever it arose); or
(b) the carried over provision provided for the event, circumstance or thing to be dealt with in a particular way; or
(c) the carried over provision stated that the event, circumstance or thing (whenever it arose) was to be disregarded for the purposes of that provision or was not covered by that provision.
