Administrative Appeals Tribunal (Australia)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) in Australia is an independent body that reviews decisions made by government agencies. If someone disagrees with a decision, like a rejected visa or welfare claim, they can appeal to the AAT. The tribunal examines the case, considers evidence, and can uphold, change, or overturn the original decision. Its goal is to ensure fairness and transparency in administrative decisions. The AAT provides an accessible pathway for individuals to seek justice without going through the courts, aiming to resolve issues efficiently and impartially.
