CAN A REGISTRAR’S DECISION BE REVIEWED?
Yes, you can apply for a review of a registrar’s decision within
20 working days of the decision being made (or longer if you
have a good reason).
Where a determination or order has already been made by a registrar, affected persons may also
apply to the court to seek a review of that determination or order. A review must be lodged within 20 working days
after the determination or order is made or, at the satisfaction of a judge, within a longer period.
