Section 48 of the Strata Act 1996 addresses this issue
(2) A notification cannot be lodged in the Registrar-General’s office more than 2 years after the passing of the resolution for the amendment, repeal or new by-law.
The bylaw may have been approved correctly but it wasn’t registered until 4 years later so it is invalid, and the whole thing needs to be revoted again.
BUT
This happened in 1979 and so I don’t know what act was in force then and you would have to find the relevant act and see what it says about registering new bylaws. The magic date is 21 May 1979 and so whatever act was relevant on that date is the rule for registering new bylaws.
