30G: Procedure on appeals

You could also call this:

"How you can challenge a decision about weights and measures experts"

If you disagree with a decision made about accredited persons under the Weights and Measures Act 1987, you can appeal to the District Court. When the judge hears your appeal, they can do a few things. They might agree with the original decision and keep it the same. Or, they might change the decision or even make a completely new decision that the Secretary could have made about the issue. Whatever the judge decides is final, and you can't appeal it further.
