HUMAN RIGHTS ACT 2019 - SECT 55
Giving copies of declaration of incompatibility
55 Giving copies of declaration of incompatibility
(1) The Supreme Court must give a copy of a declaration of incompatibility to
the Attorney-General within 7 days after— (a) if the period for filing an
appeal in relation to the proceeding in which the declaration was made has
ended without an appeal having been filed—the end of that period; or
(b) if
an appeal has been filed in relation to the proceeding and, on appeal, the
declaration is upheld—the appeal has been finalised. Example— If the
Trial Division of the Supreme Court makes a declaration of incompatibility
(based on a referral of a question from QCAT) and on appeal the Court of
Appeal upholds the declaration, a copy of the declaration must be given to the
Attorney-General within 7 days after the Court of Appeal’s decision.
(2)
The Attorney-General must, as soon as practicable, give a copy of a
declaration of incompatibility received under subsection (1) to the Minister
administering the statutory provision for which the declaration was made,
unless the Minister is the Attorney-General.
