We welcome parliamentary scrutiny as a significant and appropriate element of governance and a positive opportunity for constructive dialogue.

Reporting

We report to the parliament across the following areas:

Accountability

We are committed to transparent decision-making processes and to providing access to a fair and objective procedure for the internal review of our decisions.

What is an internal review of a decision?

An internal review of a decision is the process of reviewing a primary decision that was made within the agency by an officer of the agency. This process aims to test the merits of the decision and either affirm or vary the primary decision.

The law provides that a decision recipient can seek an internal review of certain statutory decisions under the Australian National Registry of Emissions Units Act 2011, the Carbon Credits (Carbon Farming Initiative) Act 2011, the Clean Energy Act 2011, the Renewable Energy (Electricity) Act 2000, and their associated regulations, before going to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT).

Under the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act 2007  and associated regulations, there is no statutory requirement to seek an internal review of a decision.

Further information is available on our internal review of decisions page. Alternatively, you can contact us about our internal decision review process at decision.review@cleanenergyregulator.gov.au.
