Cases where right of Crown to legal representation is restricted
19 Cases where right of Crown to legal representation is restricted
This section applies to proceedings where an Act removes or restricts the right of a party to be represented in the proceedings by a legal practitioner.
In proceedings to which this section applies the Territory Crown or the Attorney-General, if a party to the proceedings, may be represented by an officer, employee or agent of the Crown (not being a legal practitioner) authorised to conduct the proceedings on behalf of the Crown or the Attorney-General.
In proceedings to which this section applies, a document apparently signed by a Minister or the person having chief executive authority in an agency, instrumentality, department or unit of administration of the Territory Crown that appears to be an authorisation of the kind contemplated by subsection (2) is, in the absence of proof to the contrary, to be accepted as such an authorisation.
