## What's new

- **Appeals.** `Decide > Publication` has an `Appeals` tab listing every appeal an applicant
  submits against a declined application, with its grant, status and reviewer. Filter it by grant
  or status. Open an appeal to read the grounds and its history, select `Assign reviewer` (or
  `Change reviewer` while it is under review), and, as the reviewer, `Record outcome` with what the
  applicant reads and your internal reasoning. See [Appeals](/administrator/decisions/appeals).
- **The appeal on the application and in the register.** An application's page shows its open
  appeal under `Application Decisions`, and the decision register has an `Appeal` column with each
  application's latest appeal. See [The decision register](/administrator/decisions/decision-register).
