Ģ��ƵAT Held or Ģ��ƵDT Pronouncements

Ģ��ƵAT noted that the Order under appeal was an interlocutory decision because it struck out the matter, which, Ģ��ƵAT clarified, did not mean that Ģ��ƵDT had dismissed the application. Ģ��ƵAT dismissed the appeal as not receivable, noting that the Appellant could supplement her application with Ģ��ƵDT within 90 days of the date of the publication of the Ģ��ƵAT judgment.

Decision Contested or Judgment/Order Appealed

Ģ��ƵDT issued an Order (No. 003 (NBI/2019) in which Ģ��ƵDT found that the Applicant had failed to articulate her application properly and failed to identify in clear terms the administrative decision of which she was seeking review. Ģ��ƵDT concluded that there was therefore no proper application before it for determination and ordered that the Applicant��s case be struck out.

Legal Principle(s)

An interlocutory order by Ģ��ƵDT is only appealable when Ģ��ƵDT has clearly exceeded its jurisdiction or competence.
