Process to apply for a review of a Land and Property Rights Tribunal decision or order that meets the basic requirements.
Pursuant to the Surface Rights Act, the Tribunal may hear requests for review of Tribunal orders and decisions. The request will not necessarily lead to a review of a Tribunal decision or order.
To apply, submit a completed Request for Review of Decision or Order form.
If you run out of room on the form, complete your answers on another sheet and attach it to the form.
Applications to review a decision or order must meet the submission deadlines. Refer to Rule 37 of the Surface Rights Rules for deadline details. The Tribunal panel adheres to the criteria found in Rule 37 when deciding whether to review a decision or order.
All parties are given a chance to make representations on whether the basic requirements for review under Rule 37 have been met.
Basic requirements include:
The initial decision made is whether the decision or order will be reviewed. The decision or order will only be reviewed if the threshold requirements for review, as outlined in the Surface Rights Rules, are met. If the basic requirements are not met, a decision of the Tribunal panel will issue advising that the decision or order will not be reviewed.
If the request for review meets the basic requirements described in Rule 37 of the Surface Rights Rules, the matter may be reviewed. The decision or order may be reviewed based upon the evidence provided during the initial hearing (whether this hearing was oral or written). In appropriate circumstances, the Tribunal panel may request additional submissions from the parties or hold a new hearing.
Past decisions of the Tribunal and the Courts may be of assistance when attempting to understand how the Tribunal may decide a particular matter.
For more information, see Surface Rights decisions.
