About us

The Judicial Commission is an independent body established under the Judicial Commission Act 2020 to deal with complaints about the behaviour or physical or mental capacity of Northern Territory judicial officers and members of the Northern Territory Civil and Administrative Tribunal (NTCAT).

The Commission is made up of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, the Chief Judge of the Local Court, the President of NTCAT, the President of the Law Society Northern Territory and one non-legal community member.

The Commission is supported by the Judicial Commission Office (JCO) run by the Principal Officer and staff who assist with assessing and investigating complaints. The JCO is the point of contact for anyone considering making a complaint.
