Constitution
The first tribunal was established under Part 9A of the Police Services Act 1990 (NSW).
The tribunal was continued in existence under amendments made by Police Service (Complaints, Discipline and Appeals) Amendment Act 1993 (NSW). The tribunal was re-established as court of record.
The Governor of New South Wales could appoint a president or a deputy president of the tribunal. The president or the deputy president could either be a judge of the Supreme Court of New South Wales, the Industrial Relations Commission of New South Wales, the District Court of New South Wales or the senior chairperson of the Government and Related Appeals Tribunal of New South Wales.
Every judge of the District Court was automatically a member of the tribunal.

Famous quotes containing the word constitution:
“The Federal Constitution has stood the test of more than a hundred years in supplying the powers that have been needed to make the Central Government as strong as it ought to be, and with this movement toward uniform legislation and agreements between the States I do not see why the Constitution may not serve our people always.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“If you complain of neglect of education in sons, what shall I say with regard to daughters, who every day experience the want of it? With regard to the education of my own children, I find myself soon out of my depth, destitute and deficient in every part of education. I most sincerely wish ... that our new Constitution may be distinguished for encouraging learning and virtue. If we mean to have heroes, statesmen, and philosophers, we should have learned women.”
—Abigail Adams (1744–1818)
“In this choice of inheritance we have given to our frame of polity the image of a relation in blood; binding up the constitution of our country with our dearest domestic ties; adopting our fundamental laws into the bosom of our family affections; keeping inseparable and cherishing with the warmth of all their combined and mutually reflected charities, our state, our hearths, our sepulchres, and our altars.”
—Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
