286: Defect in appointment

"Mistakes in choosing committee members don't change the committee's decisions"

Illustration for Fisheries Act 1996

If you are looking at what the Catch History Review Committee does, you should know that a problem with how a member was appointed does not affect what the committee decides. The committee's work is still valid even if someone finds out later that there was an issue with how a member was chosen. You can find more information about this by looking at the relevant laws.
