VCAT can review decisions made by the Mental Health Tribunal under the Mental Health and Wellbeing Act 2022. We hear and decide these cases in our Human Rights List.
Our media team can help with media questions about specific cases, whether an application has been lodged or withdrawn, names of parties and dates of hearings.
VCAT hearings are generally open to the public, including media. Access depends on the type of proceeding and whether orders are in place that close the hearing or prevent publication of details.
