LHRT: it’s my count of the ratio between the number of times someone has gone to the AAT or a court with a request for a CASA decision to be overturned, and the number of times the request is granted. Around 25 to 1. All of the applications and decisions are matters of public record.
Anyone can and should make a big deal out of the independent umpire giving CASA a caning – this is a democracy. Indeed, I think it was me who posted a link on this forum to the most recent AAT matter in which Hotop and Gration did just that. The independent umpire’s there because no decision or decision-maker’s perfect. But to extrapolate from the decisions in which the independent umpire gives CASA a caning, without taking into consideration all the other decisions the other way, lacks intellectual honesty.
