“Ms Prenc has also had several roles within the Department of Justice since 2005, including the position of Senior Crown Counsel with the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (Criminal) since 2010.

“I wish to personally congratulate to Ms Prenc and I look forward to working with her as we deliver a modern and more efficient court system for all Tasmanians.”

The position of Administrator became vacant when the previous occupant, Ms Penelope Ikedife, was appointed to the position of Registrar of the Supreme Court in November 2022.
