Delegation
25 Delegation
The Regulator may, by writing, delegate one or more of the Regulator’s powers or functions under this Act to one or more of the following —
an officer or employee of an agency of the State;
an officer or employee of an agency of the Commonwealth;
an officer or employee of an agency of another State or a Territory.
However, the Regulator must not delegate a power or function, under subsection (1), to an officer or employee of an agency of the State without the agreement of the State.
Note for this section:
The Commonwealth Act section 25(3) states that a delegate of the Regulator “is, in the exercise of the delegate’s delegated powers and functions, subject to the Regulator’s directions”. In this State the Interpretation Act 1984 section 59(1)(b) states that a delegation under a written law “may be made subject to such conditions, qualifications, limitations or exceptions as the person so delegating may specify”.
