When is the deadline for request to a decision-maker for a written statement of reasons for a reviewable decision?
The catalogue records a 14 days period from The day the person was notified of the decision, or is taken under an enabling Act to have been given notice of it by publication, or (if neither applies) the day the person became aware of the decision. This draft page remains free only until its source, worked example and limits are reviewed.
Source link required
This page is in preparation. It does not offer an automated deadline or a paid record until the missing source or calculator evidence is complete.
In preparation
The existing catalogue does not yet have a registered adapter or source evidence for this exact question. It remains available as a public preparation page only.
Example pending review
A separately reviewed fixture is required before this question can become indexable. The page does not present an unreviewed output as an example.
Calculation basis and source
- Period
- 14 days
- Trigger
- The day the person was notified of the decision, or is taken under an enabling Act to have been given notice of it by publication, or (if neither applies) the day the person became aware of the decision
- Counting
- The encoded calculator method must be independently documented before publication.
- Rollovers and holidays
- Holiday, closure and order treatment must be independently documented before publication.
This route remains in preparation until a pinpoint official source is recorded.
- QCAT Act s 61(1)(b).
- Making this request moves the 'relevant day' for the 28-day review application under s 33(3)-(4)(b), so it is the standard way of preserving time while reasons are obtained. Corrected on verification: the researched entry truncated s 158(3)(b)(ii) and omitted limb (iii) entirely, so a person who was never formally notified would have had no trigger. The decision-maker must then give the statement within a reasonable period of not more than 28 days after the request (s 158(4)).
