        this Part (reviewable decisions); and

   (b)  who is eligible to apply for a review of a reviewable decision (the
        eligible person in relation to the reviewable decision).

(1A) In addition, regulations made under this Act may specify that a decision
made by the Authority under a prescribed provision of those regulations is a
reviewable decision and specify who is an eligible person in relation to the
decision.

(2) To avoid doubt, sections 4 and 5 of the
Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal Act 1998 apply for the purposes of
this Act.

Note Under section 4 of that Act, a person makes a decision if the person
refuses to make a decision or an instrument, imposes a condition or
restriction or does or refuses to do any other act or thing. Section 5 of that
Act sets out when a person's interests are affected by a decision.
