29 Regulations

(1) The Governor may make regulations, not inconsistent with this Act, for or with respect to any matter that by this Act is required or permitted to be prescribed or that is necessary or convenient to be prescribed for carrying out or giving effect to this Act.

(2) The regulations may make provision for or with respect to restoring the operation of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 in relation to an infrastructure project that would otherwise be exempted from that Act by this Act and, in particular, for or with respect to:

(a) declaring an authorisation of an infrastructure project by the Co-ordinator General to be a development consent or other approval under that Act and applying the provisions of that Act (with any specified modifications) to any such consent or approval, and

(b) the operation of provisions relating to existing uses and the continuance of lawful uses in relation to an infrastructure project.

For that purpose, the regulations may also amend that Act to insert provisions into Schedule 6 to that Act in relation to the application of that Act (before or after the repeal of this Act) to infrastructure projects carried out under this Act.

(3) The regulations may contain provisions of a savings or transitional nature consequent on the enactment of this Act.

(4) Any such provision may, if the regulations so provide, take effect from the date of assent to this Act or a later date.

(5) To the extent to which any such provision takes effect from a date that is earlier than the date of its publication on the NSW legislation website, the provision does not operate so as:

(a) to affect, in a manner prejudicial to any person (other than the State or an authority of the State), the rights of that person existing before the date of its publication, or

(b) to impose liabilities on any person (other than the State or an authority of the State) in respect of anything done or omitted to be done before the date of its publication.
