Appeals Tribunal

An Appeals Tribunal is a specialized court or panel that reviews decisions made by lower courts or administrative bodies. When someone believes a decision is unfair or incorrect—such as a denial of welfare benefits or a workplace grievance—they can appeal to this tribunal. The tribunal examines the evidence, applies relevant laws, and decides whether to uphold, change, or overturn the original decision. Its purpose is to ensure justice and fairness in administrative processes, providing a crucial check on the decisions made by authorities.
