consist of—
(a) a
person nominated by the Chief Executive of the administrative unit responsible
for administration of this Part; and
(b) a
person who, in the opinion of the Minister, has experience or qualifications
relevant to valuation of the type of property subject to the appeal; and
(c) a
person who, in the opinion of the Minister, has experience or qualifications
relevant to the sector of the livestock industry affected by the outbreak or
suspected outbreak of exotic disease.
(5) A decision of the
majority of the members of the panel is a decision of the panel.
(6) On an appeal, the
panel may affirm or quash the determination appealed against or substitute a
determination that the panel thinks appropriate.
(7) A decision of the
panel is final and not subject to review and a determination of the
Chief Inspector is not subject to review other than by way of appeal under
this section.
