Employment Services Regulatory Authority 1997-98
1.13
Section 68 of the Employment Services Act
1994 notes that the Commonwealth Authorities and Companies Act 1997
applies to ESRA. Section 9 of the Commonwealth Authorities and Companies Act
1997 states that the directors of a Commonwealth Authority must present an
annual report to the responsible Minister by the 15th day of the 4th
month after the end of the financial year.
1.14
As this 1997-1998 report was apparently not
submitted to the responsible Minister until 2 September 1999, it lies well
outside of the expected timeframe. While the responsible Minister is empowered
to grant an extension of time, the Committee could find no record of such an
extension.
