Judicial and Statutory Officers (Remuneration and Allowances) Regulations (Amendment)

Subsection 8(3) of the Judicial and Statutory Officers (Remuneration and Allowances) Act 1984 (the Act) provides that the Governor-General may make regulations for the purposes of the Act.

Subsection 8(1) of the Act provides that where a person appointed to hold a statutory office in a full-time capacity was, immediately before the appointment, the holder in a full-time capacity of another statutory office or an officer (including an unattached officer) of the Australian Public Service or an officer in the service of a body corporate established for a public purpose by or under an Act, the person shall, if the regulations provide, be paid during the period of the appointment to the first mentioned statutory office, in lieu of the remuneration and expenses of office allowance, remuneration and an expenses of office allowance at such rate as specified in the regulations.

The Judicial and Statutory Officers (Remuneration and Allowances) Regulations (the Regulations) were amended in 1990 to provide, in regulation 4 of the Regulations, for the rate of remuneration payable where an officer appointed as Administrator of Norfolk Island was, immediately before that appointment an unattached officer of the Australian Public Service and immediately before that had been a Secretary of a Commonwealth Department. The Administrator at the time of making the amending regulations filled these conditions.

This person ceased duty as Administrator of Norfolk Island on 12 April 1992 and for this reason the regulation was no longer required.

Subregulation 2.1 omits regulation 4 of the Regulations.
