Better practice guidance to decision making (PUB 75)

Central to good decision making is decision makers’ understanding of the legal and administrative framework in which decisions should be made.

The Administrative Review Council produced a series of best-practice guides to assist decision makers in Commonwealth agencies, covering the following areas:

  • Lawfulness
  • Natural justice
  • Evidence, facts and findings
  • Reasons
  • Accountability

This guidance extends the best practice guides published by the Administrative Review Council by adding commentary, notes and reference appendices.

Although developed for Comcare staff, it will also assist other SRC Act determining authorities to make decisions under the SRC Act.
