Section 171(4) ousts the Tenancy Tribunal's jurisdiction to determine an application under s 140(5) where the contract or the underlying rights have a value or practical financial consequences exceeding $50,000 because Parliament imposed monetary jurisdictional thresholds to limit the Tribunal and 'appropriate decision-maker' contemplates referral to District or High Court where consequences exceed those thresholds; jurisdiction is determined by the effect of the order, not merely its form.
