First Home Owner Grant Act 2000

An applicant may give a written objection to the commissioner if the applicant is dissatisfied with the commissioner’s decision in any way.

For how documents may be given, see Legislation Act, pt 19.5.

A third-party debtor for a grant recipient may give a written objection to the commissioner if the debtor is dissatisfied with a decision of the commissioner to require the debtor to pay a recoverable amount instead of the grant recipient.

The commissioner must refund any fee paid in relation to the objection if—

the commissioner allows the objection in whole or in part; or

the objector applies to the ACAT for review of the commissioner’s decision on the objection and—

the ACAT or a court hearing the review or appeal on the matter upholds the objection in whole or in part; and

the period when any further appeal can be made has ended; and

neither the objector nor the commissioner has appealed against the decision in relation to a part of the objection that was upheld.
