GOVERNMENT SECTOR AUDIT ACT 1983 - SECT 33F
Executive officers
(1) In this section--
"employment" of an executive officer means-- (a) the appointment of, or
failure to appoint, a person to a vacant executive position, or
(b) the
removal, retirement, termination of employment or other cessation of office of
the executive officer, or
(c) any disciplinary proceedings or disciplinary
action taken against the executive officer, or
(d) the remuneration or
conditions of employment of the executive officer.
"executive officer" means a person holding an executive position.
"executive position" means a position in the Audit Office that-- (a) has a
salary greater than the maximum salary applicable to a grade 12 clerk's
position in the Public Service, and
(b) is designated by the Auditor-General
as an executive position.
(2) The contract of employment of an
executive officer may provide for the payment of compensation to the officer
on the removal or termination of employment of the executive officer.
(3) The
Auditor-General may remove an executive officer from an executive position at
any time for any or no reason and without notice. The person is not, except as
may be provided in the person's contract of employment, entitled to any
compensation for the removal from office.
(4) The employment of an
executive officer, or any matter, question or dispute relating to any such
employment, is not an industrial matter for the purposes of the
Industrial Relations Act 1996 . This subsection applies whether or not any
person has been appointed to a vacant executive position.
(5) Part 6 (Unfair
dismissals), Part 7 (Public sector promotion and disciplinary appeals) and
Part 9 (Unfair contracts) of Chapter 2 of the Industrial Relations Act 1996
do not apply to or in respect of the employment of an executive officer.
(6)
Any State industrial instrument (whether made before or after the commencement
of this section) does not have effect in so far as it relates to the
employment of executive officers.
(7) Subsection (6) does not prevent the
Auditor-General from applying the provisions of an award or industrial
agreement (including a determination under section 33C) to the employment of
an executive officer.
(9) No proceedings for an order in the nature of
prohibition, certiorari or mandamus or for a declaration or injunction or for
any other relief, lie in respect of the appointment of or failure to appoint a
person to an executive position, the entitlement or non-entitlement of a
person to be so appointed or the validity or invalidity of any such
appointment.
(10) This section prevails over any inconsistent provision of
any other Act or law or of the terms of appointment of, or contract of
employment with, an executive officer.
