Community Services Act 2007

This section applies if more than 1 department provides funding received by a funded entity.

The chief executive of 1 of the departments (the first chief executive) may exercise a power on behalf of any or all of the chief executives of the other departments in relation to the funding received by the funded entity.

The first chief executive may only act on behalf of a chief executive of another department with the written consent of the other chief executive.

The exercise of a power by the first chief executive on behalf of the chief executive of another department may be in relation to all or part of the funding provided by the other chief executive’s department.

Nothing in this section limits the power of a chief executive under this Act.
