Suburban Rail Loop Act 2021

A document required or permitted to be served on the Authority may be served by being left at its principal office with a person authorised in writing by the Authority to accept service of documents on behalf of the Authority.

A document required or permitted to be served by the Authority on a person may be served—

by delivering it personally to that person; or

by leaving it at that person's usual or last known place of residence with a person apparently over the age of 16 years and apparently living there; or

by post addressed to that person at the person's last known place of residence; or

if the person is an owner or occupier of land whose name and address are not known to the Authority—

by leaving it at the land with a person apparently over the age of 16 years and apparently living there; or

by putting it up on a conspicuous part of the land; or

if the person has given an electronic address as an address for receiving notices or other documents—by sending it by electronic communication to that electronic address; or

in any other prescribed way; or

in any other manner permitted by any other Act or law.

If the name and address of the owner or occupier of land are not known to the Authority, a document may be addressed to the "owner" or "occupier".

If a document is served on the owner or occupier of land the service is binding on any subsequent owner or occupier as if actually served on that person.

A statutory declaration by a person who has served or given a document to or on behalf of the Authority stating the manner, place, date and time the document was served or given is evidence of the document having been served or given.
