The
following relates to the CAO 48 [in part], which is subject to a disallowance motion by Senator Nick Xenophon:
Heads of power
Regulation 5.55 of CAR 1988, and its replacement in regulation 210A, were used among the heads of power for the new CAO 48.1 to facilitate the eventual repeal of CAO Part 48 which was made under regulation 5.55 and which, from 1 September 2014 (not 4 December 2013), is continued in force under regulation 210A by virtue of regulation 335.
Other than to facilitate that eventual repeal, and for ensuring that CAO Part 48 would no longer apply to new and early opt-in AOC holders covered by the new CAO 48.1, regulation 5.55 of CAR 1988 was not required as a head of power for the making of the new CAO 48.1 because conditions on AOCs were used as the vehicle to impose the new fatigue risk management obligations.
It is interesting to note:
- casa now does quote the head of power;
- casa keeps the ability to read this stuff in an absolute mess;
Move on to US-FAR's or NZ-Regs now and get rid of this rubbish.
