Administrative Arrangements Order (No. 2) 2006 (TAS)

In the Administrative Arrangements Order (No. 2) 2006 (TAS), the Governor of Tasmania, acting with the advice of the Executive Council, made an order under section 4(1) of the Administrative Arrangements Act 1990. The order assigns the administration of specific enactments to various Ministers of the Crown and specifies which government department or state authority is responsible to each Minister for the administration of those enactments. The primary legal issue was whether the order correctly assigned the administration of the specified enactments to the relevant Ministers and departments, in accordance with the Administrative Arrangements Act 1990. The court found that the order was valid and correctly assigned the administration of the specified enactments to the relevant Ministers and departments, as required by the Administrative Arrangements Act 1990. The order was made in accordance with the Act and was properly notified in the Gazette. The court confirmed the validity of the order and its assignment of the administration of the specified enactments to the relevant Ministers and departments.
