s 13Validity of laws not affected by omission from Laws

(1)

No written law omitted from the Laws, under the authority of this Act or otherwise, shall be deemed to be without force and validity by reason only of the fact that it is so omitted.

(2)

The repeal or omission from the Laws of any Act repealed or omitted during and for the purpose of the preparation of the Laws shall not affect the validity of any existing resolutions of the Legislative Council, or any Proclamations, rules, regulations, orders, notifications, by-laws or other instrument having legislative effect and made under, or by virtue of any lawful authority conferred pursuant to any Act so repealed or omitted but such Proclamations, rules, regulations, orders, notifications, by-laws or other instruments, so far as they are not inconsistent with any written law for the time being in force, shall continue in force until otherwise provided.
