NCAT returns to Gosford Gateway Centre

6 June 2017

The NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal (NCAT) will return to Gosford Gateway Centre in the Central Coast with hearings expected to begin by mid-July.

Property NSW has signed a three-year lease in a move which will allow NCAT to deliver improved services for the Central Coast, where it currently helps more than 6,000 people a year 

The Consumer and Commercial Division will sit every week, while the Guardianship Division will also regularly use a hearing room. On group list days there will be capacity to schedule up to 30 matters a day.

For the first time, a Sheriff’s Officer will also provide onsite security when required to improve safety for tribunal users. 

Attorney General Mark Speakman said: “Central Coast residents who rely on the work of the tribunal will have access to a refurbished facility in a familiar location, with two hearing rooms and five conciliation rooms.”

Since NCAT left the Gateway Centre six months ago, most hearings have been conducted at Gosford Courthouse, with lengthier hearings held in Newcastle.
