Civil Disputes and small Claims refer VCAT. They certainly cover a wide variety of areas.
Members of Government, Ministers and their Advisors are a good starting point for any grievance. It amazing what results a Members enquiry or contact can have on an official.
Or better strill just go the 90 day permit scheme...

I disagree with the 90 day permit system being a solution to registration.
If everyone starts going down that route it will give the authorities reason to scrap the ICV process. The intention of permit systems is to allow historic cars access to roads for travelling between club events and completing maintenance and repairs.
We should not be looking to this as a solution for kit cars. A solution should be more towards adding an ICV category to the low volume scheme. The low volume scheme is national and currently has categories for under 25 and 25-100. There should also be an additional option of 1 per year that allows cars built by individuals to obtain a VIN through the Feds that is then accepted by the states. Compliance would simply be to the national code of practice which has been written by a committee made up of all states. full stop!
If full production and both categories of low volume are complied at a national level, why are ICVs done at state level? There is no logic. There are no secure borders between states where you have to stop and have a vehicle inspected. Cars can freely be sold and bought interstate.
All states should be doing is checking vehicles are maintained.
Has no one actually stopped and thought about this?
