The Northern Ireland Health and Safety Tribunal is an independent tribunal set up to consider and determine appeals against decisions made by a licensing authority in connection with the issue of, conditions applied to, or revocations of asbestos or petroleum-spirit licences.

The Tribunal adjudicates upon disputes between members of the public, private bodies and the Health and Safety Executive for Northern Ireland in relation to two main areas:

• Where the appellant has had a disputed action issued under the Petroleum (Consolidation) Act 1929 as amended; or
• Where the appellant has had a disputed action issued under the Control of Asbestos Regulations (NI) 2007 as amended.
