If a taxpayer has deferred losses from previous years due to not satisfying Non Commercial Loss Rules. In current year, they satisfy a Non Commercial Loss Rules. This means the loss is now deductible but what happens if there is a business loss left over ie Taxable income is less than total deferred losses from previous years. Does it remain deductible in the following year or do you have to satisfy the Non Commercial Loss Rules all over again next year?

Remains deductible. Once a business loss (which includes the deferred loss) becomes deductible off other taxable and exempt income it will remain deductible until the loss is extinguished.
If your taxable and exempt income is a loss for the year then this becomes a tax loss.
Tax losses are carried forward and claimed in the next tax year.
