Delegation of CEO’s functions
24 Delegation of CEO’s functions
The CEO may delegate any or all of his or her functions under this Act to a person (original delegate).
The CEO may authorise an original delegate to delegate to another person any or all of the functions (except the power to delegate) that are delegated to the original delegate under subsection (1).
The Minister may enter into an agreement, on the recommendation of the CEO, with another person or body for the person or body to carry out specified functions of the CEO in accordance with the agreement.
If carrying out a function specified in an agreement depends upon the opinion, belief or state of mind of the CEO, then, subject to the agreement, the function may be carried out on the opinion, belief or state of mind of the person who is carrying it out under the agreement.
For the purposes of this Act and any other written law, an act or thing that is done by, to, by reference to, or in relation to, a person or body, in connection with the carrying out by the person or body of a function of the CEO in accordance with an agreement, is as effectual as it would be if it were done by, to, by reference to, or in relation to, the CEO.
