Abstract
The article examines the concept of administrative justice
and shows how this term does not lend itself to a singular
definition, but it is generally associated with a more holistic
approach to citizen redress against government in which judicial
review is only one mechanism among many others. After
identifying some of the primary mechanisms within the system of
administrative justice (Consultation, Ombudsman, Tribunals) and
showing how they interact with one another, the article outlines
the main challenges that this system faces in an era of austerity.
Indeed, the reduction of government spending on the mechanisms
which facilitate administrative justice has the potential to hollow
out the values that infuse administrative justice as a whole.
