7G: Immunity for delegations outside public service

You could also call this:

"Protection for people helping outside the public service"

Illustration for Oranga Tamariki Act 1989

If you are outside the public service and you are acting under a delegation, the law treats you like a public service employee. This is because Section 104 of the Public Service Act 2020 applies to you. You get this protection when you are acting under a delegation referred to in section 7B or section 7C.
