Follow the standard referencing example in the Ara APA guide when referencing Acts. The commencement date is the important part of the reference for Acts and not their subsequent edits.

Therefore, for the Privacy Act as featured below, the referencing would be:

Privacy Act 2020, No.31. (2020). https://www.legislation.govt.nz/act/public/2020/0031/latest/LMS23223.html
