reasons for decision

Outline 1. This is an internal appeal, under s 80(2) of the Civil and Administrative Tribunal Act 2013 (NSW) (the NCAT Act), against a decision made in the Consumer and Commercial Division of the Tribunal in relation to an application lodged by the appellant (the tenant). A work order and access order were made but the other claims of the appellant against the respondent (the landlord) were dismissed. 2. The Notice of Appeal indicated that the appeal is based on the tenant's opposition to the installation of a solid front door, and her claims in relation to an exit sign and light. Having considered the documents lodged and the submissions made, we do not consider that any ground of appeal, or any basis for leave to appeal, has been shown.
