Crown Land Management Act 2016

The Minister may, by written order, suspend a board member from office during the investigation and determination of any matter involving an allegation of incompetence, misconduct or breach of duty by the member if the Minister is satisfied that it is appropriate in the public interest to do so.

A copy of an order under this clause must be served on the board member.

While suspended from office under this clause, a board member—

is not entitled to exercise any functions of the office, and

is not entitled to any fee or remuneration to which he or she would otherwise be entitled as the holder of the office.

The period of suspension under an order made under this clause commences on the date the order is served on the board member or the date specified in the order for the commencement of the period of suspension, whichever is the later.
