Question 1
Locate the Narcotic Drugs Amendment Act 2016 (Cth) (‘NDAA’) on the web. Provide the hyperlink to this piece of legislation using a database (other than AustLII) before proceeding. 
Answer these questions:
Provide a hyperlink directly to your chosen Act somewhere other than AustLII. What is the long/correct title of your Act? 
Provide a hyperlink to a copy of the Explanatory Memorandum (or the relevant Reading Speech) from when the Act was being introduced into Parliament. Who was the Minister or Parliamentarian who introduced this Act as a Bill and what did they have to say about its purpose?
Which section within the Act describes its object or purpose? What is that object or purpose and how is it intended to be carried out? 
Locate a dictionary or a definition section in the Act which helps with interpretation, what is the section and where is it found? Are there other examples in the layout of the Act which you find helpful in interpreting the Act? (scan through Chapter 6 in the textbook briefly for ideas if you are stuck.)
Are there any examples of plain English drafting in your Act? (E.g. A simplified outline or grouped definitions.) Provide an example. Locate a piece of drafting in the Act which you think may be challenging and explain why you think this could be the case.

Question 2

For this exercise your case note should contain all of the following:

What was the question of law to be decided? (eg. Had driver X been negligent?)
