31 Enrolment of volunteers
Subject to approval by the brigade referred to in a person's application, the Authority may enrol the person—
as a general member of the brigade if the person meets the eligibility criteria specified in regulation 26; or
as a junior member of the brigade if the person meets the eligibility criteria specified in regulation 27.
A brigade may delegate the approval of a person's application to a brigade management team.
Despite regulation 26(2), the Authority may enrol a person for the functions and duties specified by the Chief Officer if the Authority considers that the person is not physically or medically capable of performing all the duties of a member without endangering the person's own safety or the safety of others, but is capable of performing the duties specified by the Chief Officer.
The Authority may, in respect of a person who is enrolled as a member of a brigade, limit the functions and duties for which the person is enrolled to those specified by the Chief Officer if the Authority considers that the person has become physically or medically incapable of performing all the duties of a member without endangering the person's own safety or the safety of others, but is capable of performing the duties specified by the Chief Officer.
The Authority may refuse to enrol a person as a member of a brigade if the Authority—
requires the person to undergo a medical examination and the person fails the examination or refuses to take the examination; or
considers that the person is not a fit and proper person to be a member of the brigade; or
is satisfied that some other reasonable ground exists to refuse enrolment.
