Compliance Appeals Form

Pursuant to sections 3.5(1) and 3.5(2) of the Carbon Industry Code of Conduct (the Code), the Code Administrator will investigate alleged breaches of the Code by Signatories. Where the Code Administrator finds that a Signatory has breached the Code, the Code Administrator can, pursuant to section 3.5.2(f))(i) of the Code, allocate an action or sanction.

 

A Signatory may appeal the Code Administrator’s decision to the Code Review Panel (see section 3.9 of the Code) if the Signatory believes that the Code Administrator did not exercise reasonable discretion, that they were denied natural justice, or that new evidence is available that was not available at the time of an original decision.

 

Appeals can be made by completing this Compliance Appeals form and sending it within one month of being notified by the Code Administrator of its decision.

 

All decisions by the Code Review Panel are binding and there is no further right of appeal.
