Western Australian Current Acts

CROSS-BORDER JUSTICE ACT 2008 - SECT 131

131 .         Secondary office holders and secondary offices

        (1)         A secondary office holder is an office holder of a participating jurisdiction who holds office (whether under an appointment or otherwise) because the office holder is an office holder of one of the other participating jurisdictions.

        (2)         A secondary office is an office held under the law of a participating jurisdiction by a secondary office holder.

        Examples for this section:

        1.         SA and NT police officers who are appointed as WA police officers under the Police Act 1892 will be secondary office holders of WA.

        2.         SA and NT community corrections officers will be taken to be WA community corrections officers under the Sentence Administration Act 2003 section 98AA as modified by the regulations and will therefore be secondary office holders of WA.
