by A. R. M. T. B. Ratnayake With the introduction of an Administrative Appeals Tribunal, via the
17th Amendment to the Constitution, public officers will be able to get
out of the tangle they were in, and can rest assured of seeking remedy
from a body established by the Judicial Service Commission, on a legal
basis. Further an Administrative Appeals Tribunal is welcome, because even
if judicial review is available for redress of grievances, the parties may
be too poor to seek litigation or subject matter of dispute may be too
small for such remedies to be pursued in the Courts, having regard to the
delays and high costs. It is hoped that aggrieved parties will have easier
and cheaper access to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal. Other Stories |
