Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

(1) An appeal lies to the Supreme Court or to such other court as may be prescribed from any decision of the Governor that a person is not a fit person to hold a licence to act as an aircraft maintenance engineer, member of the flight crew of an aircraft, air traffic controller, student air traffic controller or aerodrome flight information service officer, and if the court is satisfied that on the evidence submitted that the Governor was wrong in so deciding, the court may reverse the Governor’s decision and the Governor must give effect to the court’s determination.
(2) An appeal does not lie from a decision of the Governor that a person is not qualified to hold the licence by reason of a deficiency in that person’s knowledge, experience, competence, skill, physical or mental fitness.
(3) The respondent to any appeal under this article shall be the Attorney General or other principal legal officer of the Government of the Territory.
(4) For the purposes of any provision relating to the time within which an appeal may be brought, the Governor’s decision is deemed to have been taken on the date on which the Governor provided a statement of reasons for the decision to the applicant for the licence, or as the case may be, the holder or former holder of it.
