It will usually be apparent from the hearing why an order has been made.

The Tasmanian Civil and Administrative Tribunal Act 2020 enables any person who was aggrieved by a decision of the Tribunal to request a statement of reasons. Such a request must be in writing. A statement of reasons will explain the reasons why the Tribunal came to its decision.

The statement will contain:

• a list of the evidence and information that the Tribunal used to make its decision
• discussion about what occurred at the hearing
• interpretation of how the legislation relates to the facts and evidence of the case
• explanations about why orders were made or not made

You should make your request for a statement of reasons within 21 days of the date of the order of the Tribunal. The statement will then be delivered to you within 21 days.
