Appealing a decision

We will do all the following:

•  go though the information with you to check the assessment and decisions have considered all your relevant information in line with the policies
• discuss with you the parts of the assessment or decision you disagree with
• note any exceptional expenditure (financial assessment) or circumstances (deferred payments/interim funding) that you believe we should consider

If you are still dissatisfied after discussion with the FAB Team you can lodge an appeal.
