380: Removal of trustee from office

You could also call this:

"The Minister can sack a trustee if they're not doing their job properly or behaving badly."

The Minister can remove a trustee from their job if they think the trustee is not doing their job properly. You might not be doing your job properly if you are unable to do your duties, or if you have neglected your duties. The Minister can also remove a trustee if they think the trustee has done something wrong, or if they are acting in a way that is bad for the community.

The Minister must have good reasons to remove a trustee, and they must tell the trustee in writing. If you want to see how this rule is similar to another rule, you can look at s 219V(5). The Minister's decision to remove a trustee is based on whether the trustee is working in the best interests of the community.
