I have just heard that VCAT is adjourning all face-to-face hearings up to and including 15 May 2020.
The previous position was that face-to-fact hearings up to 17 April 2020 were adjourned.
The notice I received applied to the Building and Property List. If you have matters in other lists of the Tribunal, you should contact the registry to see if your matter is proceeding.
VCAT is still hearing urgent applications (including applications for interlocutory injunctions to restrain wrongful re-entry of a lease) by telephone.
I will post again when I hear about technological solutions that the Tribunal has implemented for electronic hearings.
