Review of decisions

Most decisions made by Wine Australia in relation to the administration of the export controls are subject to review by the ART.

Applications may be made to the ART for review of the following decisions of Wine Australia:

• a refusal to grant a licence to export or to suspend or cancel a licence to export
• a decision to refuse to approve a grape product for export or to revoke the approval of a grape product for export
• a decision to impose conditions on the approval of a grape product for export (including through variation of the conditions on an existing approval)
• a decision to refuse to issue an export certificate or to revoke an export certificate (here meaning an export permit)
• a decision to specify conditions on the validity of an export certificate (export permit), or
• a decision to give directions about the quantity of grape product that the licensee may export.

The person making an application to the ART for a review of a decision made by Wine Australia is responsible for their own costs, including legal representation if desired.
