Equal Opportunity Act 2010

A representative body may make an application to the Tribunal on behalf of a named person or persons if the Tribunal is satisfied that—

each person—

is entitled to make an application under section 123(1)(a); and

has consented to the application being made by the body on the person's behalf; and

the representative body has a sufficient interest in the application; and

if the application is made on behalf of more than one person, the alleged contravention arises out of the same conduct.

A representative body has sufficient interest in an application if the conduct that constitutes the alleged contravention is a matter of genuine concern to the body because of the way conduct of that nature adversely affects or has the potential to adversely affect the interests of the body or the interests or welfare of the persons it represents.
