LIQUOR LICENSING ACT 1997 - SECT 22

22—Application for review of Commissioner's decision

        (1)         A party to proceedings before the Commissioner who is dissatisfied with a decision made by the Commissioner in the proceedings may apply to the Court for a review of the Commissioner's decision.

        (2)         However, if the Commissioner's decision relates to a subject on which the Commissioner has an absolute discretion, the decision, insofar as it was made in the exercise of that discretion, is not reviewable by the Court.

        (3)         An application for review of a decision of the Commissioner must be made within 1 month after the party receives notice of the decision or a longer period allowed by the Court.

        (4)         A review is in the nature of a rehearing.

        (5)         On a review, the Court may exercise any one or more of the following powers:

            (a)         affirm, vary or quash the decision subject to the review;

            (b)         make any decision that should, in the opinion of the Court, have been made in the first instance;

            (c)         refer a matter back to the Commissioner for rehearing or reconsideration;

            (d)         make any incidental or ancillary order.
