Commentary on provisions of Act Section 29: General implementation of agreements
This section provides that domestic law is to have effect with the modifications that are required for implementation of the TCA and the Security of Classified Information Agreement. It only applies to provisions of the Agreements which are not implemented by another mechanism and is designed to ensure that all aspects of the Agreements are implemented to the extent necessary to comply with international obligations.
	Subsection (1) provides that existing domestic law is to be read with such modifications necessary to comply with the Agreements.
	Subsection (2) limits the use of the glossing mechanism in subsection (1), so that any equivalent or other provision in or under this Act or in or under any other Act used for the purposes of implementing the Agreements has precedence. Subsection (1) cannot limit any power to give effect to such an obligation.
	Subsection (3) provides that references to the Agreements in subsection (1) are to be read as those that have effect when the Agreements come into force or are provisionally applied.
	Subsection (4) defines the terms used in this section.
