Upper Tribunal (Administrative Appeals Chamber)

The Upper Tribunal (Administrative Appeals Chamber) is a part of the UK's judicial system that reviews decisions made by government departments and agencies. Its role is to ensure these decisions are fair, lawful, and based on correct information. When someone disagrees with an administrative decision—like immigration, social security, or immigration matters—they can ask this Tribunal to reconsider. It functions as an independent court, providing a higher level of review beyond the initial decision-maker, helping to uphold accountability and proper legal standards in administrative actions.
