Rather than listing specific dollar amounts, the regulation simply adopts whatever allowances are currently payable to APS staff.\n\n**Who it affects:**\n- The **Sex Discrimination Commissioner** — the independent office holder responsible for investigating discrimination complaints and promoting gender equality under the *Sex Discrimination Act 1984*.\n\n**Why it matters:**\nThis ensures the Commissioner can claim reimbursement for expenses (such as travel or accommodation) at standard public service rates, without Parliament needing to update the regulations every time allowance rates change."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/sex-discrimination-commissioner-allowances-regulations","history":"/api/acts/sex-discrimination-commissioner-allowances-regulations/history","analysis":"/api/acts/sex-discrimination-commissioner-allowances-regulations/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/sex-discrimination-commissioner-allowances-regulations/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/sex-discrimination-commissioner-allowances-regulations/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/sex-discrimination-commissioner-allowances-regulations/documents"}}
