Regulation of building practitioners - Licensing and disciplining of building practitioners - Appeal from decisions

333: Notice of right of appeal

You could also call this:

“You must be told about your right to disagree with a decision and how long you have to do it.”

When someone tells you about a decision or action that you can appeal under section 330, they must also tell you in writing that you have the right to appeal. They need to let you know how long you have to make your appeal. This is to make sure you understand your rights and don’t miss the chance to appeal if you want to.
