Perhaps have a look at how harmonised legislation as been introduced in other areas?
The states/territories still need their own individual acts. But those acts copy or refer to the national act. So the states/territories still have room for individual variances but the bulk of the legislation is harmonised.
WHS/OH&S legislation is an example of harmonised legislation. The national WHS act was apparently mostly based on the Victorian state OH&S act. But when it came to introduce it, the Victorian government was the only one that actually backed out.
Anyway, I doubt harmonisation will happen in strataland anytime soon. So we still will have the 8 (?) versions of strata law for many years to come.
