Consultation when preparing draft corporate plan
28 Consultation when preparing draft corporate plan
In the course of preparing the draft corporate plan the Board must consult – in relation to the interests of the State as a whole and the long-term objectives of the Authority, with the Minister; and in relation to the financial performance objectives of the Authority, with the Minister and Treasurer together; and in relation to the interests of the tourism industry in Tasmania as a whole, with the Tourism Council Tasmania Limited.
The Minister may give a direction to the Board – in relation to a long-term objective of the Authority; or if the Minister considers the draft corporate plan to be inconsistent with the ministerial charter, in relation to that inconsistency.
The Minister and the Treasurer jointly may give a direction to the Board in relation to the financial performance objectives of the Authority.
Subject to subsection (5), the Board must comply with a direction if it is in writing and – in the case of a direction referred to in subsection (2), signed by the Minister; or in the case of a direction referred to in subsection (3), signed by both the Minister and the Treasurer.
A direction has no effect in respect of a contract entered into by the Authority before the direction was given if compliance with the direction would result in the Authority failing to perform the contract.
