Observations on the Administrative Appeals Tribunal

Mike Seccombe has written critically about the state of the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT), particularly during recent years. He argues that political appointments, the removal of qualified personnel, and the sidelining of merit-based processes have undermined the institution’s effectiveness. According to his reporting, these changes have contributed to a significant backlog of unresolved cases, with the number exceeding 50,000 at one point, burdening the appeals system and delaying justice for many Australians.
