Heritage Act 2017

The Heritage Council is established.

The Heritage Council—

is a body corporate with perpetual succession; and

has a common seal; and

may sue and be sued in its corporate name; and

may acquire, hold and dispose of real and personal property; and

may do and suffer all acts and things that a body corporate may by law do and suffer.

The common seal of the Heritage Council must be kept as directed by the Heritage Council.

All courts must take judicial notice of the seal of the Heritage Council on a document and, until the contrary is proved, must presume that the document was properly sealed.
