If you represent a traditional owner group and believe there is activity that is – or will be – in breach of a land use agreement under the Traditional Owner Settlement Act 2010, you can apply to VCAT.
VCAT hears certain matters about the conduct of councillors, reviews certain decisions made by a Councillor Conduct Panel or the Secretary to the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning, hears certain applications for relief from disqualification and hears reviews of disputes about the validity of local government elections.
The Accident Towing Services Act 2007 gives VCAT the power to make certain decisions. VCAT has both original jurisdiction and review jurisdiction under the Act.
VCAT can review certain decisions made under the Conveyancers Act 2006 by the Business Licensing Authority (BLA) and the Secretary of the Department of Justice and Community Safety.
If you believe your interests may be or have been affected by the granting of an exemption under the Equal Opportunity Act 2010, you may apply to VCAT to have the exemption revoked.
