	Legislation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Legislation (or "statutory law") is law which has been promulgated (or "enacted") by a legislature or other governing body.
		Legislation can also be created at provincial and local levels of government (which have their own legislatures), where separation of powers may be less formal and complete.
		The record of events and public statements of legislators that explain the reasons for the law and its expected meaning are called "legislative history".

	AVCC Overview
		Australian universities are part of a clearly recognised international community of scholarship, with academic staff recruited internationally, and students also increasingly coming from overseas as well as from across Australia.
		Apart from the Australian National University, which is constituted under an Act of the Federal Parliament, all of Australia’s universities are established or recognised under State or Territory legislation.
		The Federal Government has principal responsibility for public funding of the 37 public universities, although universities are increasingly seeking funds from the wider community, in part as a result of the Government’s stated intention to alter the public-private funding mix for universities.
