This highly respected work provides clear, detailed coverage of the legal controls on government decision-making in each Australian jurisdiction, supported by extracts from legislation, cases and commentary. It covers the public law concepts and theories that influence government decision-making and administrative review, and the different roles played by courts, tribunals, ombudsmen and other review bodies. The criteria applied by those bodies in reviewing the legality and propriety of government administrative action are examined in an integrated manner that best shows the options available to an aggrieved person.
