Water Act 2000

The registrar may delegate the registrar’s functions under this Act to—

an appropriately qualified public service employee; or

the titles registry operator.

If a function of the registrar is delegated to the titles registry operator, the titles registry operator must subdelegate the function to an appropriately qualified employee of the titles registry operator.

The titles registry operator may impose conditions on a subdelegation under subsection (2) that are not inconsistent with any conditions to which the delegation to the titles registry operator is subject.

If the registrar delegates the registrar’s function of keeping the water allocations register to the titles registry operator, a reference in an Act to an office of the registry is, if the context permits, taken to be a reference to an office of the titles registry operator—

where documents may be lodged; and

that is published on the operator’s website.

In this section—function includes power.
