Brief

The Autonomous Sanctions Amendment Act 2024 is an act that amends the Autonomous Sanctions Act 2011 and validates certain instruments. The act commences on April 9, 2024, except for section 10A which comes into effect on the day after Royal Assent.

The act includes amendments to the Autonomous Sanctions Act 2011, specifically introducing a new subsection 10A that proscribes persons or entities based on past circumstances, actions, or positions. The act also validates regulations and instruments made before commencement, taking them as valid and effective if they would have been permitted by paragraph 10(1)(a) of the Autonomous Sanctions Act 2011.

Furthermore, the act validates pre-commencement instruments that were made under regulation 6 or 6A of the Autonomous Sanctions Regulations 2011, if they would have been wholly or partly invalid only because the Minister did not consider exercising discretion to designate a person or entity. Additionally, the act provides for compensation for acquisition of property resulting from the operation of this Part.

The act applies to various provisions, including civil and criminal proceedings instituted on or after commencement, and proceedings that are concluded before or on commencement.
