Consultation period: 4 August to 15 August 2025
The existing Loan Securities Regulations 2015 are scheduled to sunset on 1 October 2025.
The draft Loan Securities Regulations 2025 repeal and remake the Loan Securities Regulations 2015.
The language and layout have been reformatted. This is to meet modern drafting practices for regulatory instruments.
The provision for the reissue of a certificate has been removed for:
- lost
- stolen
- destroyed
- mutilated securities.
The Commonwealth no longer issues securities as scrip. The payment provision has been retained.
The delegation of powers under the Regulations have been amended to align with best practice.
Further details on the draft regulations are contained in the Explanatory Statement.
