"When someone in a special job can be removed or chooses to leave their role"

If you are a member of the Employment Relations Authority, the Governor-General can remove you from your job at any time if you are not able to do your job properly, if you neglect your duties, or if you behave badly. You can also be removed from your job if you are declared bankrupt under the Insolvency Act 2006. If you want to leave your job, you can resign by writing to the Minister to let them know you are leaving. You will be considered to have left your job as soon as you give the Minister your written notice.
