APY Lands, Governance

In reply to the Hon. T.A. FRANKS (25 February 2015).

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation): I am advised:

Section 130 of the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Land Rights Act 1981 clearly sets out the legal framework in relation to suspension of the Executive Board. It is important to note however, it is not possible to appoint an administrator without first suspending the Executive Board.
