The applicant or the respondent in any particular matter may appeal against a decision of the Board either to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (under the Administrative Appeals Act 1975) or to the Federal Court of Australia (under the Administrative Decisions (Judicial Review) Act 1977).

In appropriate cases, those bodies may grant a stay in relation to publication of the Board's decision. In those circumstances the Board will not publish the Notice of Decision until the relevant stay is lifted or will not otherwise publicise its decision.
