The Federal Disciplinary Authority is an Austrian authority set up at the Federal Ministry for Art, Culture, Public Service and Sport and, as a disciplinary authority for federal officials, will be responsible for issuing disciplinary findings and deciding on suspensions. As of October 1, 2020, it will take over the procedures of the disciplinary commissions set up at every federal ministry and every body equivalent to it and will be responsible for around 80,000 federal civil servants. The authoritative legal basis is the 2nd amendment to service law 2019 and the Civil Service Service Law Act 1979 .
The federal disciplinary authority decides in senates that are made up of a full-time member, a member (part-time members) appointed by the central office of the accused's employer (Federal Ministry) and a member appointed by the central committee responsible for the accused (employee representative). The decision is generally made with a majority of the votes, but the penalty for dismissal must be decided by a majority. The division of responsibilities between the senates is carried out by the head of the authority. With regard to military disciplinary law ( Army Disciplinary Law 2014 ), the federal disciplinary authority is also responsible, but special provisions apply to the occupation of the senates. The employer's interests are safeguarded by a disciplinary attorney.
The Federal Disciplinary Authority is not responsible for the officials of the Parliamentary Directorate , the Court of Auditors and the Ombudsman's Office; a separate joint disciplinary commission has been set up for these with Art. 30b B-VG at the Parliamentary Directorate .
The Federal Administrative Court decides on complaints against decisions by the federal disciplinary authority .
