The Hearing
A hearing is when the Tribunal hears evidence and opinions about an application. It is an opportunity for anyone with a genuine and continuing interest in the adult to put their views forward and have them considered.
In some instances, it may be decided that an application does not need to go to hearing where parties attend to give oral evidence and instead the application can be dealt with on the written material alone. If this is the case, all parties who have previously been contacted will be notified by mail that they are not required to attend but should put their views in writing to the Tribunal.
Hearings are held throughout Queensland. Hearings via telephone or videoconference may be available for people who live in remote areas or who are unable to attend the hearing. An interpreter for the adult will be arranged, if necessary, for the hearing.
