This paper examines the public interest test and how it is employed in immediate action hearings under the Health Practitioner Regulation National Law. It examines the history of the test in New South Wales and its eventual adoption by other States and Territories. The paper then examines recent cases from across Australia to highlight differences of approach in the formulation and application of public interest in immediate action hearings. The section concludes with some reflections on whether further reforms are needed to clarify and improve the application of the test.
