This is out of CASA's hands, as ALL Commonwealth Legislation is drafted by OLD, this was enacted by Parliament about 7 Prime Ministers ago, so in the last 7 years.
Nipper,
Simply NOT correct, from someone who has worked from withing the the system.
The CASA legislation is as CASA (the client) wants it. Persons in CASA will tell you otherwise, they are not telling the truth, probably because many of them don't understand the system, as you don't.
.
Have a look at CASR 21-25 (except for the recent sodding around by CASA) that is how "the client", at the time, wanted it.
There is plenty of examples of Cth legislation that is plain (as we understand it) English.
Have a look at the Corporation Act 2001 ---- or have a look at some environmental legislation, where large slabs of legislation from other countries have been adopted by reference, a practice that has been going on since Federation.
Tootle pip!!
