Protection from liability for wrongdoing
90 Protection from liability for wrongdoing
An action in tort does not lie against a person other than the Authority for anything that the person has done, in good faith, in the performance or purported performance of a function under this or any other Act.
The protection given by subsection (1) applies even though the thing done as described in that subsection may have been capable of being done whether or not this Act had been enacted.
Despite subsection (1), neither the Authority nor the State is relieved of any liability that it might have for another person having done anything as described in that subsection.
In this section, a reference to the doing of anything includes a reference to an omission to do anything.
Subsection (1) has effect subject to the Statutory Corporations (Liability of Directors) Act 1996.
