Explanatory note

The object of this Proclamation is to commence amendments relating to the Civil and Administrative Tribunal enabling certain persons, with the leave of the Local Court or District Court, to commence proceedings in the Court for the determination of original applications and external appeals that the Tribunal cannot determine because they involve the exercise of federal diversity jurisdiction (that is, jurisdiction referred to in section 75 (iv) of the Commonwealth Constitution).
