A little way through this jumped out at me.
Section 10 under heading Applicable Legislation
The Tribunal’s function in relation to applications before it is set out in section 63 of the ADR Act:
63 Determination of administrative review by Tribunal
(1) In determining an application for an administrative review under this Act of an administratively reviewable decision, the Tribunal is to decide what the correct and preferable decision is having regard to the material then before it, including the following:
(a) any relevant factual material,
(b) any applicable written or unwritten law.
So we in NSW have unwritten laws.
Note it doesn't say Common Law.
From where do these unwritten laws emanate?
How does one know if one is liable to offend against one of these unwritten laws?
That’s a good pick up - wtf is an unwritten law and how is it to be applied. Lol. That’s quite amazing.
Hey - you just shot twice inside 1 minute, I’ll have ya licence thanks mate?
You’ll what? There’s no law against that!
That’s where ya wrong buddie, Tom Cruise will be here soon to explain fmd.
