Could someone please direct me to the Bail Act, I have looked on the Internet and the Austlii website, I am just unsure if it is the correct one I am looking at?

If it is assented, then that means it exists doesn't it? I just want to make sure before I use it anywhere.

Just refer to the Bail Act 1978 and if u can remember Bail Amendment (Terrorism) Act 2004, talk about that... it deals with certain terrorism offences.

That's not always the case ... some acts are assented to but
(a) only come into force after being proclaimed by the Governor (or Governor-General) in Council; or
(b) only come into force on a date appointed by a 'commencement' section of the act itself.

Check the text of all bills/acts to ensure you are aware of the date of commencemnet. Also note the 'Notes' section of all Austlii legislation as that contains the table of ammendments and, generally, the commencement date(s).

Good luck :)
