Conditions - Recreation Leave

Under the Remuneration Tribunal Act 1973 (the Act), the Remuneration Tribunal may determine recreation leave for full-time holders of public office (but not part-time offices) where the enabling legislation (i.e. the Act establishing the office) states that the Tribunal will determine the matter (section 7 (3AB)).

The Tribunal has more general powers for PEOs – it can determine terms and conditions and Recreation Leave

The relevant Determination for each office will outline the entitlements (if applicable). The current Recreation Leave determination is 2007/09 - Recreation Leave for Full-Time Holders of Relevant Offices
