- Civil and Administrative Tribunal Act 2013 (NSW) s 41(1): the Tribunal may, of its own motion or on application, extend the period of time for the doing of anything under any legislation in respect of which it has jurisdiction, despite anything to the contrary in that legislation, and under s 41(2) the application may be made even though the period has expired. Not computed.
- The trigger is the LATER of notification of the decision and the giving of reasons, and r 25(4A) provides that the day on which reasons are given is the day on which reasons are FIRST given, whether orally or in writing. An oral ex tempore statement of reasons therefore starts the clock, which is a frequent trap where written reasons follow much later. Reckoned under Interpretation Act 1987 (NSW) s 36 rather than UCPR r 1.11. Corrected on verification: the researched entry did not record r 25(4)(a), which displaces the 28 days entirely where the enabling legislation specifies its own appeal period. That paragraph must be checked before the 28 days is applied. r 25(5) separately requires the appellant to serve a sealed copy of the notice of appeal on each respondent as soon as practicable after lodging. Rule text verified verbatim against the current consolidation of the Civil and Administrative Tribunal Rules 2014 (NSW) on legislation.nsw.gov.au.
