The decision of the SSE
The decision of the SSE
Reflecting the split statutory scheme which I have summarised, it was for the SSE to decide whether or not to make prohibition orders and on what terms.
In MD’s case, the Decision-Maker acting for the SSE made a prohibition order with a 5-year review period.
In SF’s case, the Decision-Maker acting for the SSE concluded that a prohibition order was necessary, and imposed a prohibition order with a two-year review period.
Substantial reasons were given for both of those submissions, to which I return below.
