(b) subsection (8) does not apply to the termination.
(8) A State does not cease to be a referring State because of the termination of its amendment reference if:

express amendment of this Act or the ASIC Act means the direct amendment of the text of this Act or the ASIC Act (whether by the insertion, omission, repeal, substitution or relocation of words or matter) by Commonwealth Acts, but does not include the enactment by a Commonwealth Act of a provision that has, or will have, substantive effect otherwise than as part of the text of this Act or the ASIC Act.

initial reference of a State means the reference by the Parliament of the State to the Parliament of the Commonwealth of the matters covered by subsection (4).

to the extent to which they deal with matters that are included in the legislative powers of the Parliaments of the States.
State reference Act for a State is the law under which the initial reference and the amendment reference are given.
5 General territorial application of Act
Geographical coverage of “this jurisdiction”
(1) Section 9 defines this jurisdiction as the area that includes:
(a) each referring State (including its coastal sea); and
(b) the Capital Territory (including the coastal sea of the Jervis Bay Territory); and
(c) the Northern Territory (including its coastal sea); and
(d) also, for the purposes of the application of a provision of Chapter 7 or an associated provision (see subsection (10)) — any external Territory in which the provision applies because of subsection (9) (but only to the extent provided for in that subsection).
(2) Throughout this Act, this jurisdiction therefore consists of:
(a) either:
(i) the whole of Australia (if all the States are referring States); or
(ii) Australia (other than any State that is not a referring State) if one or more States are not referring States; and
(b) also, when used in or in relation to a provision of Chapter 7 or an associated provision (see subsection (10)) — any external Territory in which the provision applies because of subsection (9) (but only to the extent provided for in that subsection).
Operation in this jurisdiction
(3) Each provision of this Act applies in this jurisdiction.
Operation outside this jurisdiction
(4) Subject to subsection (8), each provision of this Act also applies, according to its tenor, in relation to acts and omissions outside this jurisdiction.
Residence, place of formation etc.
(7) Each provision of this Act applies according to its tenor to:
(a) natural persons whether:
(i) resident in this jurisdiction or not; and
(ii) resident in Australia or not; and
(iii) Australian citizens or not; and
(b) all bodies corporate and unincorporated bodies whether:
(i) formed or carrying on business in this jurisdiction or not; and
(ii) formed or carrying on business in Australia or not.
Note: Paragraph (b) — many of the provisions in this Act apply only in relation to companies (that is, to companies that are registered under this Act).
Operation in non‑referring States
(8) This Act does not apply to an act or omission in a State that is not a referring State to the extent to which that application would be beyond the legislative powers of the Parliament (including powers it has under paragraphs 51(xxxvii) and (xxxix) of the Constitution).
Expanded application of provisions of Chapter 7 and associated provisions
(9) The regulations may provide that, in specified circumstances, a specified external Territory is included in this jurisdiction for the purposes of a specified provision of Chapter 7 (the applicable provision). If the regulations do so:
(a) the applicable provision applies in that external Territory in those circumstances; and
(b) the associated provisions (see subsection (10)) in relation to the applicable provision apply in that external Territory in relation to the applicable provision as so applying.
Meaning of associated provisions
(10) For the purposes of this section, the associated provisions in relation to a provision of Chapter 7 are:
(a) the provisions of Chapters 1, 9 (including the provisions of Division 2 of Part 9.4 that create offences and of Part 9.4B that allow for pecuniary penalty orders) and 10 as they apply or have effect in relation to, or for the purposes of, the provision; and
(b) any regulations or other instruments (including any that create offences or allow for pecuniary penalty orders) made under this Act for the purposes of any of the provisions covered by paragraph (a); and
(c) if regulations made for the purposes of subsection (9) have been made in relation to the provision — any other provisions of this Act, or any regulations or other instruments made under this Act (including any that create offences or allow for pecuniary penalty orders), specified in those regulations.

(2) Chapter 5 (except Part 5.8) binds the Crown in right of the Commonwealth, of each of the States, of the Capital Territory, of the Northern Territory and of Norfolk Island.
(3) Chapters 6, 6A, 6B, 6C and 6D:
(a) bind the Crown in right of the Commonwealth; and
(b)
