How do I appeal against a substantive decision of the Tribunal?

Appeals from substantive decisions of the Tribunal lie to the Administrative Court. The Tribunal is not a party to appeals from its substantive decisions.

Appeals from substantive decisions of the Tribunal are made to the Administrative Court. As from 1 October 2013, the time limit for lodging an appeal is 21 days from when the Tribunal’s written Judgment is provided to the parties – see Civil Procedure Rules Rule 52 and Practice Direction 52D. The Tribunal’s written Judgment (or in some cases Memorandum), which usually becomes available 2 – 7 weeks after the hearing.
