150: Decision on application

You could also call this:

"The court decides whether to approve or reject your application for a compliance order."

When you apply for a compliance order, the court thinks about it. The court can then make a decision based on what you applied for. The court may make an order as stated in section 146, or refuse your application.

If the court refuses your application, it means they do not agree with what you asked for. The court has the power to make a decision after considering all the information. You will find out what the court decides after they have thought about your application.
