Public Pools Act 2015

The director-general may determine minimum qualifications, skills and training requirements for operators, employees, people engaged under contract or volunteers at a pool facility.

A determination may make provision in relation to the following:

the kinds of qualifications, training, skills or experience required by––

operators of pool facilities; and

in accordance with their functions––employees, people engaged under contract or volunteers at a pool facility;

ongoing professional development and training requirements;

compliance with requirements under the Working With Vulnerable People (Background Checking) Act 2011;

Power to make a statutory instrument (including a determination) about a particular matter does not limit power to make a statutory instrument about any other matter (see Legislation Act, s 44 (3)).

Power to make a statutory instrument (including a determination) includes power to make different provision in relation to different matters or different classes of matters, and to make an instrument that applies differently by reference to stated exceptions or factors (see Legislation Act, s 48).

A determination is a notifiable instrument.

A determination may apply, adopt or incorporate a law of another jurisdiction or instrument, as in force from time to time (see s 56).
