Effect of vacancy of deliberative component
(1) If for as long as a body declared a deliberative component of the legislature is vacant in the whole (a vacant component), the legislature does not consist of the vacant component and a law is void to the extent that:
- (a) the law requires:
- (i) proposed law of any kind to originate in the vacant component; or
- (ii) any resolution to be made or any other privilege or immunity exercised by the vacant component; or
- (b) the law limits the power of any deliberative component not vacant in the whole:
- (i) to introduce or amend proposed law that may only be introduced or amended by the vacant component; or
- (ii) to make a resolution that may only be made by the vacant component.
(2) If each deliberative component is vacant in the whole:
- (a) the legislature consists solely of the enacting component;
- (b) the enacting component acting on the advice of the directors may enact laws, including by special resolution, under this paragraph;
- (c) a reference to the enacting component acting on the advice of the body vested with giving advice in Government shall be a reference to the enacting component acting on the advice of the directors;
- (d) a law requiring any resolution to be made or any privilege or immunity to be exercised by a body or bodies declared as deliberative components of the legislature, or any part thereof, as a precondition for any action by or for the Executive Government of Urabba Parks or any entity or body shall be of no effect;
- (e) if by law or convention advice is to be tendered or put by directors being the body of advisors in Government, or by any director being a member of such body, shall be taken to be tendered by a director who is the enacting component or is appointed by the enacting component.
