HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION ACT 2005 (NO. 40 OF 2005) - SECT 50

Allocating complaints

    (1)     The commission allocates a complaint by deciding which commissioner will be responsible for considering the complaint under division 4.4 for the commission.

Example

The commission may decide that the disability and community services commissioner and the discrimination commissioner will jointly consider a complaint about services provided discriminatively in relation to a person with a disability.

Note     An example is part of the Act, is not exhaustive and may extend, but does not limit, the meaning of the provision in which it appears (see Legislation Act, s 126 and s 132).

    (2)     However, the commission must not give responsibility for considering the complaint to the president.
