Adjudicators are appointed on a full-time or a part-time basis.

Adjudicators may be appointed on an acting basis. Adjudicators and Acting Adjudicators hold office on the conditions in the QCAT Act and as decided by the Minister. Acting Adjudicators are appointed by the Minister after consultation with the President and are appointed for a period of not more than 6 months.

Adjudicators hear and determine minor civil disputes (comprising residential tenancy disputes, dividing fence disputes, consumer-trader disputes, matters involving property damage caused by a vehicle and minor debt disputes) where the claim amount does not exceed $25,000 and other less complex or non-contentious civil dispute matters, such as motor vehicle claims and building disputes. Adjudicators hear multiple matters daily. This may include up to 10 residential tenancy related matters in a morning and up to 3 other minor civil dispute matters in an afternoon.

Adjudicators are expected to deliver oral reasons at the conclusion of the hearing in most cases, although some decisions may be reserved for the giving of a published decision.
