121: Chief executive responsible for administration of Act
or “The person in charge makes sure the rules are followed properly.”

You could also call this:

“The boss can let other people do some of their important jobs”

You should know that this part of the law is no longer in effect. The section called ‘Director-General may delegate powers’ was removed from the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 on 18 August 1992. This means that whatever powers the Director-General had to delegate are no longer part of this law. If you want to know more about why this change was made, you can look at section 12 of the Residential Tenancies Amendment Act 1992.
