Contents Page for Jenny Cassie's Crown Entities Act Seminars
4. CAPACITY AND POWERS OF CROWN ENTITIES Jenny Cassie, Barrister Introduction This chapter discusses the provisions of the Crown Entities Act which relate to the capacity and exercise of powers of statutory entities and, to a more limited degree, Crown entity companies and Crown entity subsidiaries. The commentary covers the generic model as covered by the Act and does not, for example, cover the exercise of powers by statutory officers whose powers must be exercised independently of an entity.72 Legal status Statutory entities, Crown entity companies and Crown entity subsidiaries are all bodies corporate and are therefore legal entities which exist separately from their members, office holders, employees and, importantly, the Crown.73 This separation is illustrated most acutely by the position of statutory entities that are corporations sole. A single person, for example, the Privacy Commissioner, may have corporate status by virtue of being declared a corporation sole. This enables an artificial line to be drawn between the person as an individual and the office as a legal person. Crown entity status contrasts with Departments, which are legally part of the Crown. Departments, having no separate legal status, can be established and disestablished by the Government by executive action. By contrast, a “statutory entity” can only be established or disestablished by legislation. Setting up Crown entity companies requires registration of a company with Ministers as shareholders.74 Capacity of statutory entities “Capacity” describes the legal ability or qualification of an entity to do something. The general rule regarding the capacity of corporations is that:75 The powers of a corporation created by statute are limited and circumscribed by the statutes which regulate it and extend no further than is expressly stated therein, or is necessarily and properly required for carrying into effect the purposes of its incorporation, or may be fairly regarded as incidental to, or consequential on, those things which the legislature has authorised. -

Services at Holy Trinity
RICHMOND PARISH PROFILE WHO ARE WE? We are a committed group of Christians who endeavour to make our church a welcoming church to all. Many visitors have favourably commented on the friendly welcome they receive among us. We are in an evangelical diocese and most of our congregation tend in that direction. There are, however, a number of parishioners with a more liberal theology. Our focus tends towards what unites us rather than what we disagree on. We are a predominantly older congregation with a small number of children and very few members in the 20-40 age group bracket. We value our evangelical, Anglican heritage which does provide a unique flavour to the Richmond church scene. Our two Sunday morning services attract just over 80 people to our wooden church on the hill near the centre of the Richmond township. WHERE ARE WE? Although Richmond is geographically close to Nelson, it is administered by the Tasman District Council (www.tasman.govt.nz) which has its main council offices in Richmond. Richmond is a thriving, growing centre for the rural townships to the south and the west. The population was estimated to be 17,250 in June 2020. In the 2018 census the main ethnic breakdown of the Tasman Region was European (92.6%), Maori (8.7%), Asian (2.8%) and Pacific (1.6%). (These figures exceed 100% as people can associate with more than one ethnic group). Due both to an increasing influx of retirees and the ageing population Tasman District’s older residents (65+) are predicted to rise from 21% in 2018 to 32% in 20 years. -
