1.1.A.02 ART reviewable claimant decision

Definition

If a decision has been affirmed, varied or set aside by Centrelink, a person affected by the decision may apply for a review of the decision by the ART. The ART may only conduct a review of a decision that has been reviewed by an ARO or where the decision was made personally by a PPL agency representative (1.1.P.160).

If a person has already applied to the ART at the time Centrelink reviews a decision, Centrelink must give written notice of the outcome of the review to the ART Principal Registrar.
