Decisions
A person may be found in contravention of the Act on the balance of probabilities, rather than beyond reasonable doubt. Where such a finding has been made, the tribunal may counsel the offender, reprimand them, suspend them or disqualified them. It may in certain circumstances, recommend other action be taken against the person.
A person may appeal to the Supreme Court of New South Wales in respect of a finding.
