Environment, Land and PLanning, the General and the Minister for

Urban Services -

Can the Minister list by name of instrument (a) all disallowable subordinate legislation and (b) all other subordinate legislation that is the responsibility of the Chief Ministers Department.

The answer to that question is as follows:

In respect of each portfolio, the disallowable subordinate legislation comprises each regulation, rule and by-law made under a power conferred by an Act. These are subject to disallowance under the Subordinate Laws Act 1989.

The administration of each Act is allocated between portfolios by the Chief Minister pursuant to section 43 of the Australian Capital Territory (Self-Government) Act 1988 of the Commonwealth and these administrative arrangements are published in the Gazette from time to time. The last publication of administrative arrangements occurred in Gazette S 48 of 7 April 1992.

In respect of each portfolio, disallowable subordinate legislation also includes, by virtue of the application of the Subordinate Laws Act 1989, any determination of fees and charges made by a Minister under an Act; any instrument made under an Act or a subordinate law (a regun, rule or by-law) where the Act or subordinate law expressly provides that the instrument is a disallowable instrument. Examples of such instruments include:
