Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This Attorney‑General declaration under section 6N of the Telecommunications (Interception and Access) Act 1979 classifies staff of two state police units in Tasmania and South Australia as occupying positions “corresponding to” AFP employees who are not AFP members.

That reclassification matters because it changes those positions’ legal status under the Act—potentially affecting what duties, access or obligations apply to those officers—while leaving operational details, funding and oversight to the Act and the agencies.
