Part 5ASummary Appeal Court of New Zealand
Establishment of Summary Appeal Court of New Zealand
123Registrar may delegate functions, duties, or powers to clerk or officer of Summary Appeal Court
The Registrar may, either generally or particularly, delegate to a clerk or any other officer of the Summary Appeal Court appointed under section 121(2) any of the Registrar’s functions, duties, and powers, except—
- any function, duty, or power delegated to the Registrar by the Chief Judge; and
- this power of delegation.
A delegation—
- must be in writing; and
- may be made subject to any restrictions and conditions that the Judge Advocate General or the Registrar thinks fit; and
- is revocable at any time, in writing; and
- does not prevent the performance or exercise of a function, duty, or power by the Registrar.
A clerk or any other officer of the Summary Appeal Court to whom any functions, duties, or powers are delegated may perform and exercise them in the same manner and with the same effect as if they had been conferred directly by this Act and not by delegation.
A clerk or any other officer of the Summary Appeal Court who appears to act under a delegation is presumed to be acting in accordance with its terms in the absence of evidence to the contrary.
