[QUOTE="user 1769, post: 168906, member: 1769"] Thanks Redfin, The act you mention applies only to Commonwealth legislation, but there is an equivalent Tasmanian act (ACTS INTERPRETATION ACT 1931), which states something similar: "(1) In the interpretation of a provision of an Act, an interpretation that promotes the purpose or object of the Act is to be preferred to an interpretation that does not promote the purpose or object." This should play in our favour, even though the purpose or object of the Act is not expressly stated (it doesn't have to be). [/QUOTE]
