Emerson and Foster and Anor

The appeal concerned a decision of the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (Social Services and Child Support Division) made on 20 August 2018. The appellant, Emerson and Foster, sought to challenge this decision.

The primary legal issue before the court was whether the Administrative Appeals Tribunal had erred in its determination. The court was required to consider the grounds of appeal raised by Emerson and Foster against the Tribunal's decision.

The court allowed the Notice of Appeal and the Amended Notice of Appeal. Consequently, the decision of the Administrative Appeals Tribunal was set aside. The matter was remitted to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal for a rehearing.
