Illustration for Social Workers Registration Act 2003

If you appeal a decision under this Part, the District Court will make a decision. The District Court's decision on your appeal is final. This means you cannot appeal their decision, except as stated in section 96.

The District Court's decision is the last one, unless section 96 says otherwise. You should know what section 96 says to understand when the District Court's decision is not final. This is how the law works for appeals under this Part.
