Abstract: | The model of the 'Super' tribunal, the generalist amalgamated civil and administrative tribunal (CAT), has been established in almost all Australian states and territories. In most jurisdictions the aim of access to justice is a feature of the aims of their establishment. CATs are now well established throughout Australia, with the most recent legislation for the establishment of the Northern Territory Civil and Administrative Tribunal (NTCAT) operating since 6 October 2014. State and Territory CATs are largely distinguished from the Commonwealth Administrative Appeals Tribunal in having jurisdiction in relation to certain civil matters, for example residential tenancies disputes, or small claims, in addition to a range of administrative review functions. |
