RAU (Enfield—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Justice Reform, Minister for Planning, Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for Child Protection Reform, Minister for the Public Sector, Minister for Consumer and Business Services, Minister for the City of Adelaide) (12:07): I move: That this bill be now read a second time. This bill will make a number of miscellaneous amendments to legislation used by the South Australian Civil and Administrative Tribunal to improve the efficiency with which SACAT is able to deal with certain matters and address the anomalous application of some provisions. In addition, the bill also makes amendments required to confer stage 3 jurisdictions on SACAT, which include various administrative and review functions currently exercised by the Administrative and Disciplinary Division of the District Court, the Magistrates Court and the Supreme Court, selected according to subject matter. I seek leave to have the remainder of the explanation inserted in Hansard without my reading it. Leave granted. In November 2013, Parliament passed the South Australian Civil and Administrative Tribunal Act 2013 (SACAT Act), to establish the South Australian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (SACAT). The objectives of SACAT include providing a single, low-cost, easy-to-use, easy-to-find forum for administrative reviews and decisions and to promote consistency and quality of administrative decision-making in this State. The SACAT Act sets out the structure, membership, constitution and other provisions that are required to facilitate the establishment of the Tribunal, but does not confer any jurisdiction. The task of conferring jurisdiction upon the Tribunal is a significant undertaking, occurring over a series of stages. The Statutes Amendment (SACAT) Act 2014, whichreceived assent on 11 December 2014, conferred stage one jurisdictions on SACAT and on 30 March 2015 SACAT commenced operation with these foundation jurisdictions of the former Residential Tenancies Tribunal, the former Guardianship Board and the former Housing Appeal Panel, in addition to land valuation objections under the Valuation of Land Act 1971 and Local Government Act 1999. Upon commencement of the relevant provisions in December 2016, the Statutes Amendment (SACAT) Act 2014 also conferred further 'stage two' jurisdictions on SACAT, of reviews under the Freedom of Information Act 1991 and First Home and Housing Construction Grants Act 2000. This Bill comprises stage three of the conferral of jurisdiction upon SACAT, conferring various administrative and review functions currently exercised by the Administrative and Disciplinary Division of the District Court, the Magistrates Court and Supreme Court, selected according to subject matter. Stage three comprises generally reviews and decisions within the subject matters of local government, land and housing, taxation and superannuation, environment and farming, energy and resources, food safety and regulation and other 'community stream' legislation including adoption and births, deaths and marriages. To confer stage three jurisdiction, the following Acts are amended by the Bill: Adoption Act 1988 Agricultural and Veterinary Products Act (Control of Use) Act 2002 Animal Welfare Act 1985 Aquaculture Act 2001 Associations Incorporation Act 1985 Births, Deaths and Marriages Registration Act 1996 Conveyancers Act 1994 Co-operatives National Law (South Australia) Act 2013 Crown Land Management Act 2009 Electricity Act 1996 Emergency Services Funding Act 1998 Environment Protection Act 1993 Environment Protection (Sea Dumping) Act 1984 Essential Services Commission Act 2002 Fisheries Management Act 2007 Food Act 2001 Gas Act 1997 Harbors and Navigation Act 1993 Historic Shipwrecks Act 1981 Land Acquisition Act 1969 Land Agents Act 1994 Land Valuers Act 1994 Livestock Act 1997 Local Government Act 1999 Mines and Works Inspection Act 1920 National Parks and Wildlife Act 1972 Partnership Act 1891 Pastoral Land Management and Conservation Act 1989 Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Act 2000 Petroleum Products Regulation Act 1995 Plant Health Act 2009 Police Superannuation Act 1990 Primary Industry Funding Schemes Act 1998 Primary Produce (Food Safety Schemes) Act 2004 Public Corporations Act 1993 Safe Drinking Water Act 2011 Southern State Superannuation Act 2009 Superannuation Act 1988 Supported Residential Facilities Act 1992 Survey Act 1992 Tobacco Products Regulation Act 1997 Water Industry Act 2012. The Bill will also make a number of miscellaneous amendments to legislation used by SACAT to improve the efficacy and efficiency of certain matters dealt with by SACAT, address the anomalous application of some provisions and fix a couple of previous drafting errors. These changes are: repeal s.37 of the Residential Tenancies Act 1995 (RTA) (application to vary or set aside order) as this section is being abused and leading to hundreds of applications in circumstances where there are alternative existing provisions in the SACAT Act that provide for orders to be revisited where this is appropriate, or reviewed. This will be supplemented by an amendment to s.85 of the SACAT Act to ensure that orders made at conciliation conferences by a dispute resolution officer when one party fails to attend are able to be varied under that section, which would otherwise have been precluded by the repeal of s.37. This was the only circumstance in which an alternative, more appropriate provision to revisit an order was not already available in the SACAT Act; make an equivalent amendment to s.41 of the Housing Improvement Act 2016, which is worded in the same terms as s.37 of the RTA for consistency and efficiency; amend s.47 of the South Australian Civil and Administrative Tribunal Act 2013 (SACAT Act) to allow a Registrar (including a Deputy Registrar) authorised in writing by the President to dismiss or strike out proceedings for want of prosecution without this needing to be heard by a Tribunal member; amend Guardianship and Administration Act1993 ss.33, 37 to require non-parties to obtain leave and demonstrate a change in circumstances to make an application to SACAT to vary or revoke a guardianship order or administration order. This is to enable SACAT to filter out inappropriate applications for variation or revocation (for example, repeated applications from disgruntled relatives or friends who disagree with an order/appointment, applying for variation or revocation shortly after an order has been made); amend the Guardianship and Administration Act to remove the requirement for financial reports to be sent to the Tribunal by an appointed administrator of a protected person under s.44(1), however retain a power for SACAT to require financial reports to be sent to the Tribunal (for example for circumstances where an administrator claims to have sent reports to the Public Trustee but Public Trustee has no record of receiving them). This change is to remove unnecessary duplication whereby such reports are currently provided to both SACAT and the Public Trustee, notwithstanding that it is the Public Trustee's role to examine and report to SACAT on their adequacy and only the Public Trustee has this expertise; amend the Guardianship and Administration Act to make provision for the appointment of an alternative guardian at the same time as a guardian to avoid the need for an urgent appointment if an appointee dies. This is based on equivalent provisions in other jurisdictions, including Victoria and Western Australia; amend the Mental Health Act 2009 to remove the requirements in ss.11, 22 and 26 for the Office of the Chief Psychiatrist (OCP) to send SACAT copies of all mental health notices relating to short term treatment orders by health professionals. Instead, the Act should only require OCP to send SACAT copies of notices relating to orders reviewable by SACAT under s79; as well as copy notices—upon request by SACAT—for orders in relation to which a review application has been made to SACAT under s.81. This will remove duplication of the record-keeping function already performed by the OCP; amend the Mental Health Act to provide for automatic expiry of a Level 1 Community Treatment Order (CTO) when SACAT makes a Level 2 CTO (s.16), and the automatic expiry of a Level 1 or 2 Inpatient Treatment Order (ITO) when SACAT makes a Level 3 ITO (s.29) to remove the uncertainty of different level orders potentially operating concurrently; amend the Advance Care Directives Act 2013 s.43(d) definition of 'eligible person' for the purposes of who may make an application to SACAT in relation to an Advance Care Directive (under s.48) to include, additionally, a person who satisfies the Tribunal that they have a proper interest; and amend s.51(1) of the Advance Care Directives Act to broaden SACAT's powers to remove a Substitute Decision Maker (SDM), including on its own initiative, by including additional grounds for removal of a SDM who is in such default in the exercise of their powers that the person is unfit to continue as SDM. These amendments to Advance Care Directives Act sections 43 and 51 are in response to concerns expressed by SACAT about its limited powers to remove unsuitable substitute decision makers where evidence of such unsuitability is apparent to SACAT. This has led to overly protracted and complicated hearings to achieve a just result and presents a potential risk to vulnerable people. The Bill includes amendments to the Advance Care Directives Act and Guardianship and Administration Act to correct a drafting error identified in the Statutes Amendment (SACAT) Act 2014, whereby the provision for making short-term orders of up to 14 days under s.32(1) of the Guardianship and Administration Act (order to place or detain protected person) without notifying other parties (old s.14(7)) was inadvertently inserted in s.54 of the Advance Care Directives Act. A minor drafting error to a consequential provision in Guardianship and Administration Act s.64(i) is also corrected. Further 'housekeeping' amendments are also made to the SACAT Act to address anomalous application of existing legislation in use by SACAT, namely to: clarify the decision-making role of assessors in SACAT (which will be the same as currently in the Administrative and Disciplinary Division of the District Court: District Court Act 1991 s.20); address the situation where the person who is the decision maker for the purposes of ss.34 and 35 for reviews by SACAT might not be the person that ought to be subject to those obligations. For example, under the Pastoral Land Management and Conservation Act 1989 where the decision maker is actually a private land valuer and the Supported Residential Facilities Act 1992 where the decision maker is the authorised officer rather than the relevant licensing authority. This issue arises also under the Statutes Amendment (Electricity and Gas) Bill 2015 where the decision-maker is an authorised officer not the ESCOSA, Minister or Technical Regulator. The SACAT Rules will be able to make the relevant Ministers, Valuer-General, licensing authority, ESCOSA, Technical Regulator (as the case may be) the party to the SACAT proceedings and the person to whom the s35 disclosure requirements attach, not the actual decision-maker. In some cases they require a power and obligation to get hold of the documents of the decision maker in order to perform their s.35 duties; and address an unintended consequence of s.56 regarding legal representation before SACAT. Section 56(3) prohibits non-lawyers from acting for parties for fee or reward. The intention was to prevent unsuitable persons from setting up businesses as lay advocates in SACAT matters. However, it has been identified that this may have the unforseen consequence of precluding public servants representing their Departments before SACAT. To address this without also precluding genuine advocacy services such as the Tenants Advisory Service from representing parties before SACAT, s.56(3) is deleted and reliance placed on the requirement in s.56(1)(c) for non-lawyers to obtain leave to appear for parties. The Bill provides for the Pastoral Land Appeals Tribunal (the PLAT) under the Pastoral Land Management and Conservation Act 1989 to be dissolved later by proclamation. The PLAT also sits within the District Court and is presided over by a District Court judge sitting with two panel experts. Although there is provision in the Mines and Works Inspection Act 1920 for establishment of the Mines and Works Appeal Board, this body was to date never established, although its proposed functions will be able to be exercised by SACAT if and when required. In addition, consistent with previous jurisdiction transfers to SACAT, various panels of experts or other panel members established to sit on a sessional basis with District Court judges to assist with appeals in the Administrative and Disciplinary Division of the District Court will be abolished pursuant to the Bill, with reliance instead on the ability for the Governor to appoint assessors to SACAT under section 22 of the SACAT Act. I commend the Bill to Members. Explanation of Clauses Explanation of Clauses Part 1—Preliminary 1—Short title 2—Commencement 3—Amendment provisions These clauses are formal.
