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 real essence, the internal qualities, and constitution of even the meanest object, is hid from our view; something there is in every drop of water, every grain of sand, which it is beyond the power of human understanding to fathom or comprehend. But it is evident ... that we are influenced by false principles to that degree as to mistrust our senses, and think we know nothing of those things which we perfectly comprehend.”
—George Berkeley (1685–1753)
“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)
“Our new Constitution is now established, and has an appearance that promises permanency; but in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.”
—Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790)
