Conversion practice complaints—late application in exceptional circumstances
53ZB Conversion practice complaints—late application in exceptional circumstances
This section applies if—
a complainant has been given a statement under section 45 (3) (g) or section 82C (1); and
the complainant has not required the commission to refer the complaint to the ACAT within 60 days after the day the statement is given to the complainant.
The complainant may apply to the ACAT for the complaint to be heard by the ACAT.
The ACAT may grant the application only if satisfied on reasonable grounds that exceptional circumstances prevented the complainant from requiring the complaint to be referred to the ACAT within the 60-day period.
If the ACAT grants the application, the complaint is, for this Act, taken to have been referred to the ACAT.
