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.
If you need an interpreter, contact us to arrange a professional interpreter (at no cost to you) before the hearing. We do not allow family of friends to translate for you at VCAT.
VCAT can review decisions made about licenses, permits, registrations, authorisations, notices, Better Environment Plans, financial assurances and site management orders.
VCAT can review some decisions about a person’s registration in a health profession and decisions relating to registered health practitioners and students under the Health Practitioner Regulation National Law.
