69      Vice-Chancellor may call in certain decisions

(1)    This section applies to any of the following decisions made (including any action taken) in relation to a student:

(a)    a reviewable decision;
[Note: See section 62 (Meaning of reviewable decision).]

(b)    a decision under section 19(2) (Decision whether to conduct review) not to conduct a review of a student's conduct;

(c)    a decision under section 39 (Decision whether to take action under this instrument) that action should not be taken under this instrument in relation to a student's conduct (other than a decision made personally by the Vice-Chancellor).

(2)    If the Vice-Chancellor considers that the decision is inappropriate in the circumstances of the case, the Vice-Chancellor may, by written notice, call in the decision for reconsideration.

(3)    However, the Vice-Chancellor may not call in the decision if an application for review of the decision has been made under the Appeals Rule.

(4)    The Vice-Chancellor must give a copy of the notice to the student. The notice must contain, or be accompanied by, a statement of reasons for the decision to call in the decision.

(5)    The Vice-Chancellor must give the student an opportunity to make submissions in relation to the reasons why the decision has been called in.

(6)    After taking into account the submissions (if any) made by the student, the Vice-Chancellor may make a decision as if the Vice-Chancellor were the original decision-maker of the decision.

(7)    The decision made by the Vice-Chancellor operates, on and from the day after the day it is made, as if it were the decision made by the original decision-maker.

(8)    If the Vice-Chancellor makes a decision under subsection (6), the Vice-Chancellor must, as soon as possible:

(a)    tell the student in writing about the decision; and

(b)    give the student a statement of reasons for the decision.
