State Corporations Appeal Tribunal was established in 1987 pursuant to section 22(1) of the State Corporations Act Cap. 446, to hear and determine appeals against the decision of the Inspector-General (Corporations). It commenced operations in 2000 when the Tribunal was set up having started receiving appeal cases from aggrieved persons who had been surcharged by the Inspector State Corporations as mentioned above. The Tribunal was established following an increase in cases of surcharge when the Government found it necessary to provide an avenue for redress to those who felt aggrieved by surcharges.  The Tribunal’s parent Ministry is the National Treasury.
