Legislative Council Fifty-Fifth Parliament, First Session (55-1) 55 1 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time South Australian Civil and Administrative Tribunal South Australian Civil and Administrative Tribunal The Hon. D.G.E. HOOD Legislative Council South Australian Civil and Administrative Tribunal The Hon. D.G.E. HOOD (15:08): Supplementary: Attorney, are there any formal guidelines in place with respect to the timeliness of SACAT decisions? The Hon. K.J. MAHER Legislative Council Minister for Aboriginal Affairs Attorney-General Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector South Australian Civil and Administrative Tribunal The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (15:08): I think SACAT, as I have said, over their nine years of existence have made some 270,000 orders, which—when I was visiting SACAT just Friday last week and informed of that—on some very quick maths I reckon is somewhere between an order every three or four minutes of their existence. It is a very high-volume jurisdiction but, in terms of guidelines, I know that they do things as speedily as they can. I am not sure if there are specific guidelines for a whole range of different matters, but I know that they are pretty well respected and do things in a timely manner, as timely as possible.
