242A Tribunal to give effect to declared government policy on remuneration for
public sector staff
(1) In making a determination, the Remuneration Tribunal
is to give effect to the same policies on increases in remuneration as those
that the Industrial Relations Commission is required to give effect to under
section 146C of the Industrial Relations Act 1996 when making or varying
awards or orders relating to the conditions of employment of public sector
employees.
(2) The policies referred to in subsection (1) do not include any
policy that provides for increases in remuneration based on employee-related
savings.
(3) This section does not apply to a determination by the
Remuneration Tribunal that changes the category of a council or mayoral office
(whether or not the effect of the change is to increase the range of amounts
payable to the councillors and mayor of a council).
(4) To avoid doubt, this
section extends to a determination of the minimum and maximum amounts payable
for a category in existence when the determination is made.
