The State Administrative Tribunal (SAT) is an independent body that reviews a wide range of government decisions and determines disputes. SAT’s jurisdiction extends to guardianship and administration, equal opportunity, vocational regulation, resources and development, including town planning, and commercial and civil disputes.
What claims can be dealt with at the Tribunal?
Under section 67 of the Dangerous Goods Safety Act 2004, a person who does not like a decision that is reviewable (e.g. safety report) may apply to the State Administrative Tribunal for a review of the decision.
A reviewable decision is:
- a decision made under Part 4 of the Act by the Chief Dangerous Goods Officer (exemptions)
- a direction given under section 46(2) of the Act by the Chief Dangerous Goods Officer (approved auditor)
- a decision made under section 54 of the Act by the Chief Dangerous Goods Officer (direction or notice)
- a decision made under the dangerous goods safety regulations by the Chief Dangerous Goods Officer in relation to an application for, or in relation to authorisation, licence, registration, permit and other approval.
