Inspector‑General may review administration of provisions
567 Inspector‑General may review administration of provisions
The Inspector‑General may review the performance of functions, or exercise of powers, by biosecurity officials under one or more provisions of this Act.
A review under this section is different from a review of a reviewable decision under Part 1 of Chapter 11. Although this section lets the Inspector‑General review an exercise of power under a provision of this Act that may involve a reviewable decision, the Inspector‑General cannot affirm, vary or set aside the decision.
Subsection (1) does not permit the Inspector‑General to review only a single performance of a function, or a single exercise of a power, by a single biosecurity official.
A review under this section must be more general.
Report on review
The Inspector‑General must publish a report on each review he or she conducts under this section.
Regulations may deal with reviews and reports
The regulations may make provision for or in relation to:
the process to be followed in conducting a review under this section; and
the content of reports of reviews conducted under this section.
