Checking in at the Tribunal Centre

As part of ensuring the safety of all persons who come to the Tribunal premises at 38 Barrack Street, the Tribunals are strongly urging all visitors to use the Check In Tas app. Please download and install the app to your smart devices ahead of time to ensure you are able to check in easily when coming to the Tribunal premises.  The Tribunal will still provide the option of written check in if you do not have a smart phone.  All visitors are reminded they MUST check in either by smart phone or in writing at reception.”

Tribunal Hearing Room Amplification System

The amplification system in the Tribunal’s new hearing rooms at Barrack Street is extremely sensitive.  When the Tribunal is not recording proceedings, the microphones still continue to operate and will send audio through the hearing loop systems to any hearing aid device being used in the room.

As such, parties are encouraged to use meeting rooms or other areas outside the hearing rooms, if they wish to have private conversations.
