The New South Wales Civil and Administrative Tribunal (NCAT) is a civil law and administrative law tribunal in New South Wales established by statute[1] on 1 January 2014.

[2] It replaced and aggregated the matters of a number of disparate tribunals.

Applications can only be made about the merits of a decision if the Appeal Panel gives permission.

[5] On Friday, 3 February 2017, the New South Wales Court of Appeal issued a declaration that the NSW Administrative and Civil Tribunal(NCAT) (which handles a range of small civil disputes), has no jurisdiction if one party lives in another state.

[9] It was believed that the practical effect of this decision is that tenants in New South Wales could discover their tenancy agreements are unenforceable if their landlord lives interstate.
