46. How are the Authority's functions to be exercised?



(1) The functions of the Authority (other than any function that this Act
requires the Public Sector Standards Commissioner to exercise independently)
are to be exercised by the members in a collegiate manner with formal
decisions made at a meeting of the Authority.

(2) Nothing in subsection (1) prevents the chairperson allocating a matter
(other than a matter relating to a function that this Act requires the Public
Sector Standards Commissioner to exercise independently) to a particular
member or group of members for consideration and report back to the Authority
for its consideration and decision.

(3) A report may only be submitted by the Authority under this Act (other than
a report by the Public Sector Standards Commissioner in performing role 2 of
the Authority) if the report is approved by the chairperson and the Authority
decides to submit it.
