Commonwealth Consolidated Acts Commonwealth Consolidated Acts(1) A family consultant has, in performing his or her functions as a family consultant, the same protection and immunity as a Judge of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Division 1) has in performing the functions of a Judge.
(2) However, if a family consultant is also a family report writer, that protection and immunity:
(a) does not relieve the family consultant of their obligations under regulations made for the purposes of section 11K (regulations prescribing standards and requirements for family report writers); and
(b) does not extend to action taken to enforce such regulations.
