Instrument 2013 No. No. R52

PART 1 — INTRODUCTION/COMMENCEMENT
1.1.1 The Treatment Principles, prepared by the Repatriation Commission under section 90 of the Act, set out the circumstances in which, and conditions subject to which, treatment may be provided for eligible persons under Part V of the Act and are to be read subject to the Act.

1.2.2 A provision of the Treatment Principles does not apply if it is inconsistent with the RPPPs.

1.2.3 Nothing in these Principles is to be taken to require prior approval for admission at a public hospital in any State or Territory.

1.3 Delegation
1.3.1 The Commission may delegate all or any of its powers under the Principles (except this power of delegation) in the same manner, and subject to the same conditions, that it may delegate all or any of its powers under the Act.
