STATE ADMINISTRATIVE TRIBUNAL - GUARDIANSHIP AND ADMINISTRATION ACT MATTERS
I refer to the 5 697 matters that were finalised by the State Administrative Tribunal during the 12-month period from October 2006 to October 2007 and, in particular, the 2 753 matters that were raised under the Guardianship and Administration Act 1990. (1) As the 2 753 matters represent nearly half of what SAT dealt with for that time period, why have there been so many issues arising from the Guardianship and Administration Act? (2) What were the main issues that people had concerns about that were raised in SAT? (3) Is there a problem with the Guardianship and Administration Act, and what are they? Hon SUE ELLERY

I thank the member for some notice of this question. (1) Guardianship and Administration orders are sought under the Guardianship and Administration Act 1990 - the act - in the circumstances where legal authority is required for a person to act on behalf of a person - the represented person - who is incapable of looking after his or her own health and safety; unable to make reasonable judgements in respect of matters relating to his or her person; incapable of managing his or her own affairs; or unable to make reasonable judgements in respect of matters relating to his or her estate. The number of all matters determined under the act in the financial year 2006-07 was 2 806. In a state with a growing population and an ageing demographic it is to be expected that there will be a relatively large number of applications made under the act. (2) The following table provides information as to the main application types made under the act during 2006-07. I table this part of the answer and seek leave to have it incorporated into Hansard . Leave granted. [See paper 3523.] The following material was incorporated - Type of application Number of applications received Number of applications finalised Section 40 - appointment of guardian 582 709 Section 40 - appointment of administrator 933 957 Section 17A - review by Full Tribunal 11 15 Section 84 - periodic review by Tribunal 586 617 Section 85 - mandatory review 24 26 Sections 86, 87 - application by party for review 319 333 Section 112(4) - application to inspect documents 41 43 Section 104A - recognise EPA made in another jurisdiction 8 8 Section 106 - declaration of incapacity; EPA in force 29 32 Section 109 - intervention in EPA 37 39 Section 74 - administrator seeking directions 13 17 Other 10 10 2,593 2,806 Hon SUE ELLERY : The answer continues - (3) There is no problem with the act.
