Cemeteries and Crematoria Act 2013

The employment of the CEO must, subject to this Act, be governed by a contract of employment between the CEO and the Minister.

The CEO is not a Public Service employee under the Government Sector Employment Act 2013 and the provisions of that Act relating to the employment of Public Service employees do not apply to the CEO, except as provided by this clause.

The following provisions of or made under the Government Sector Employment Act 2013 relating to the employment of Public Service senior executives apply to the CEO—

provisions relating to the band in which an executive must be employed,

provisions relating to the contract of employment of an executive,

provisions relating to the remuneration, employment benefits and allowances of an executive.

For subclause (3), a reference in the provisions to the employer of a Public Service senior executive is taken to be a reference to the Minister.

Without limiting subclause (3)(b), the provisions of or made under the Government Sector Employment Act 2013 that prescribe a model contract of employment for statutory officers, including provisions that specify mandatory model provisions, apply to the CEO’s contract of employment.
