James Cook University Act 1997

The council may remove the vice-chancellor from office under section 40D despite the vice-chancellor’s terms of appointment.

If the council removes the vice-chancellor from office under section 40D—

the removal does not affect the vice-chancellor’s right to claim compensation or other entitlements under his or her terms of appointment applying when the appointment ends; and

the vice-chancellor may only claim compensation and other entitlements under his or her terms of appointment as if—

the appointment had been ended as permitted under the terms of appointment; or

his or her term of office had ended.
