Reprinted Acts is a Current Series of Acts/Ordinances/Statutes - Northern Territory

From 1863-1911, the Northern Territory was part of South Australia, and a number of laws were passed specifically applying to the Territory; some South Australian laws are still in force. From 1911 until self-government was achieved in 1978, the laws of the Territory were made by Acts of the federal Parliament or by Ordinances made by the Governor-General. The laws of the Northern Territory are now made by the Northern Territory Legislative Assembly, though some powers are still reserved to the Commonwealth Parliament.
