Legal remedies

Appeals against administrative decisions can be lodged with the Regional Administrative Court. The appeal must specify the contested decision and the authority that issued it. It must contain a request and set out the grounds on which the allegation of illegality is based. The appeal must be submitted in writing to the authority that issued the decision within 4 weeks of notification of this decision, and must contain information that makes it possible to assess its timeliness. The authority can issue a preliminary decision on the appeal. The appeal can be submitted electronically.

This must be filed with the defaulting authority. The complaint must specify that authority, set out a specific request and demonstrate that the authority’s time limit for making a decision has expired.
