Commentary on provisions of Act Claims for compensation Section 9: Review and appeals
Section 9 requires the Secretary of State to make regulations dealing with the rights of review and repeal of decisions in relation to the validity of claims and the amount and payment of compensation.
	If a claimant is unhappy with the decision on their case, pursuant to these regulations, they will first be required to seek a review, which will be carried out by the decision-making authority. Should the claimant remain dissatisfied then they will have the right of appeal. Further details as to the scope of the appeal and its venue will be provided in the regulations that the Secretary of State is required to make under section 9.
