Monitor No.6 1998 (Part A)
DELEGATED LEGISLATION MONITOR
This week there were 170 disallowable instruments of delegated legislation
tabled in the Senate, made under 41 separate enabling Acts administered
through 14 Departments of State.
Of the 170 instruments, 27 are from the Statutory Rules series of delegated
legislation, which are generally superior in drafting, presentation and
access to other forms of delegated legislation. This proportion of Statutory
Rules in the total number is usual, illustrating the long term trend towards
the greater use of instruments in series other than the Statutory Rules.
Of the 170 instruments, 37 were made by the Governor-General or Ministers
and 133 were made by public officials. Of the 27 sets of Statutory Rules,
four were made as principal instruments and 23 as amending instruments.
The Child Care (Eligibility – New Allocations) Guidelines 1998
and the Child Care (High Needs Regions) Determination 1998 are
intended to address the problem that has arisen from some areas being
over supplied with private centre-based long day care while other communities
have few or no child care services.
The Health Insurance Commission Regulations (Amendment), Statutory
Rules 1998 No.67, implement details of a new eligibility criterion
for the Commonwealth Childcare Rebate which requires some children to
be fully immunised for their family to be eligible to claim the rebate.
The Private Patients’ Hospital Charter sets out what contributors
to health funds may reasonably require from registered organisations,
medical practitioners, hospitals and day hospital facilities and advises
people of matters to consider in making decisions about becoming contributors
to such funds.
The Remuneration Tribunal Determination No.12 of 1998 determines,
among other things, remuneration for the President of the Human Rights
and Equal Opportunity Commission, for the Executive Director of the Australian
Sports Commission and for the Chief Executive Officers of the Australian
National Training Authority and the Australia New Zealand Food Authority.
The High Court Rules (Amendment), Statutory Rules 1998 No.61,
made by the seven justices of the High Court, increase the amounts which
solicitors may charge in respect of proceedings in the Court.
The AUSTUDY Regulations (Amendment), Statutory Rules 1998 No.71,
implement benefits available to eligible farmers in declared exceptional
circumstances and a welfare safety net for certain low income farmers
experiencing financial hardship.
The Customs (Prohibited Imports) Regulations (Amendment), Statutory
Rules 1998 No.58, correct inadvertent effects on the importation of
certain firearms for official purposes and by international and Olympic
competitors. They also lift unreasonable burdens on firearms dealers and
Customs officials.
Any person interested in regularly receiving a copy of the Delegated
Legislation Monitor should contact the Secretary, Senate Standing Committee
on Regulations and Ordinances, Parliament House, Canberra (telephone 6277
