sec.116 How to decide whether an individual is an appropriate person

In deciding whether an individual is an appropriate person for a provision of this division, an authorised officer may have regard only to— whether the individual demonstrates knowledge and understanding of the obligations of an approved historical society and the individual’s position or proposed position to which the provision relates; and whether the individual is of good repute; and whether the individual holds a licence. The authorised officer may ask the commissioner for a report about the criminal history of the individual. The commissioner must give the report to the authorised officer. However, the report is required to contain only criminal history in the commissioner’s possession or to which the commissioner has access. If the individual’s criminal history is or includes a conviction recorded against the individual, the commissioner’s report must be written. If the individual holds or has held in another State a relevant licence, permit, authority or position, the authorised officer may obtain a report from the appropriate authority in the other State.
