Alcohol And Other Drugs Tribunal justice and court diversionary programs Local Government Area: Telephone: Darwin Alice Springs 1800 131 634 (general inquiry number) The Alcohol and Other Drugs (AOD) Tribunal will consider whether a person is misusing a substance and, if so, will make orders to help that person access counselling or intervention. The Tribunal will also have the authority: • to ban problem drinkers from purchasing, possessing or consuming alcohol • to review police-issued Police Banning and Treatment (BAT) notices The AOD Tribunal will be located in Darwin (at Casuarina) and in Alice Springs. Over time it is anticipated that the Tribunal will hold hearings in other regional centres throughout the Territory. Referral to the Tribunal Police must refer any person who has breached a third Police BAT notice to the AOD Tribunal. The Tribunal can make orders for rehabilitation and treatment. From 1 January 2012, an authorised applicant will be able to request an assessment for a person who they think may be misusing a substance. Authorised applicants will include: • police • authorised health practitioners • authorised child protection workers • adult family members Self-Referral People can self-refer to the AOD Tribunal. The Tribunal will arrange for the person to be assessed by a clinician and following this assessment, can make orders to assist in their treatment and rehabilitation. If a person gets ‘humbugged’ to buy grog for people they know, they can apply to the AOD Tribunal for a banning order even though they do not misuse alcohol. The Tribunal Process The first step in the AOD Tribunal process is for the person to be assessed to establish whether they are misusing a substance. 23
