Can I appeal against a decision on my property?
Yes. If a landlord disputes the works requested following a DASH inspection, this should be put in writing to the DASH Team with the reasons why.
The team will discuss the case with you and try to resolve the dispute.
If this is not achieved then this can be escalated to the Accreditation Network Review Group who will look at whether the works requested are in line with the DASH scheme manual, or if there is an alternative solution.
The DASH Principal Manager will review all the information proveded by the landlord and the Accreditation Review Group and make a decision as to whether the works are justified.
Should the landlord disagree with the DASH Principal Manager's decision, this can be referred to the Accreditation and Appeals Panel. The decision of the AAP is final.
