Crown Entities Act 2004

Establishment and governance of Crown entities - Statutory entities - Delegation

75: Effect of delegation on entity or board

You could also call this:

"What happens when a job is delegated to someone else in a Crown Entity"

Illustration for Crown Entities Act 2004

When a delegation is made under this Act or the entity's Act, you need to know it does not stop the entity or board from doing their jobs or using their powers. The board is still responsible for what their delegates do. A delegation is not affected by changes in the board's members or staff.
