Relevant notes from the explanatory memorandum

159. This section simply provides the Parliament shall have the legislative power ‘subject to this Constitution, to make laws for the peace, order and good government of Urabba Parks.’  Legislative power has effectively been given to the Parliament in Divisions 1 and 2 Part 1.2; the Parliament has the power to do anything (subject to any rules relating to amendment of entrenched provisions and the authorisation of entrenched acts) that can be done by the members or directors of Urabba Parks.  The intention of this section is to emphasise the generality of the legislative power, unlike the corresponding section of the Australian Constitution which enumerates those powers.
