223C Chair of APRA may determine infringement officers
The Chair of APRA may by legislative instrument determine that APRA staff members of a class specified in the determination are to be infringement officers for the purposes of exercising powers under this Part in relation to a contravention of a provision that is subject to an infringement notice under this Part.
The Chair of APRA must not specify a class of APRA staff members in the determination unless the Chair is satisfied that persons of that class have suitable training or experience to properly exercise the powers of an infringement officer.
An infringement officer must, in exercising powers as such, comply with any directions of the Chair of APRA in relation to the relevant provision.
If a direction is given under subsection (3) in writing, the direction is not a legislative instrument.
