Assented toLABill 1113 September 2000

The Acts Amendment (Iron Ore Agreements) Bill 2000 amends several existing Acts related to iron ore agreements in Western Australia. It ratifies a variation agreement related to the Iron Ore (Goldsworthy-Nimingarra) Agreement Act 1972 and makes related amendments to other iron ore agreements.

Impact

This bill primarily affects mining companies involved in iron ore extraction in Western Australia, particularly those operating under the Goldsworthy-Nimingarra, Marillana Creek, McCamey’s Monster, Mount Goldsworthy, Mount Newman, and BHP agreements. It matters because it updates the legal framework governing these operations.

Key Changes

["Ratifies the First Variation Agreement for the Iron Ore (Goldsworthy-Nimingarra) Agreement Act 1972.", "Amends the Iron Ore (Goldsworthy-Nimingarra) Agreement Act 1972 to reflect the First Variation Agreement.", "Allows for the grant of titles to joint venturers based on their percentage interests in the agreement, rather than equal shares."]
