The Administrative Review Tribunal (ART) was established by the Administrative Tribunal Review Act 2024 (Cth) to replace the Administrative Appeals Tribunal. Its role is to conduct independent reviews of administrative decisions made under a wide range of Commonwealth laws. It is divided across eight areas of practice:

• General
• Intelligence and Security
• Migration
• National Disability Insurance Scheme
• Protection
• Social Security
• Taxation and Business
• Veterans’ and Workers’ Compensation.

The ART is required to pursue the objective of providing administrative review that:

• is fair and just;
• resolves applications in a timely manner, with as little formality and expense as is consistent with reaching the correct or preferable decision;
• is accessible and responsive to the diverse needs of parties;
• improves the transparency and quality of government decision-making; AND
• promotes public trust and confidence in the Tribunal.
