Legal Counsel, Department of Transport

I have a proposal for you to consider.

Right now, it says “three years after this Act comes into force”, but the way the bill is drafted, various provisions may come in at various times. If you want to be certain, I'd recommend you change it to “three years after this Act receives royal assent”. Then you have a definite timeline to start counting your three years.
