What They're Saying
Critics Review
Review of previous editions: I laugh at the suggestion that the 1991Act was designed to make it “more accessible to persons without legal training”. In that, the draftsmen have been, may I suggest, spectacularly unsuccessful. The Act remains difficult to interpret and follow and many Tribunal decisions seem to be inconsistent and of little help in identifying the likely result of any particular application.What the authors of this book have done, is to draw together the more prominent decisions in the many areas covered by the legislation and then suggest the likely interpretation to be applied by a Tribunal. …I cannot emphasise too strongly, what an invaluable source of ready information this book contains on social security related issues. It should be seriously considered for every practitioner’s library. - Tasmanian Law Society Newsletter
