104: Inspectors who are not public servants

You could also call this:

"Inspectors who aren't government employees"

Illustration for Films, Videos, and Publications Classification Act 1993

You are an inspector of publications, but not a public servant. You get appointed on terms the Secretary decides. You can get paid from money Parliament sets aside for this. You are not a public servant just because you are an inspector. This means you are not covered by the Public Service Act 2020 or the Government Superannuation Fund Act 1956. For some laws, like the Ombudsmen Act 1975 and the Official Information Act 1982, you are treated as working for the Department of Internal Affairs.
