Practitioners advising Local Aboriginal Land Councils should note that a CEO cannot commence litigation on behalf of a LALC without express Board delegation, and that upon appointment of an administrator under s 222, all Board delegations cease by operation of s 226(1). The procedural fairness requirements for administrator appointments are confined to s 223A notice to Board members and NSWALC, and NSWALC's approval power under s 222(3) can be validly delegated to its CEO under s 116, with the presumption of regularity applying to the delegate's compliance with delegation conditions.
