Summary of this decision

Summary of this decision

This decision relates to the Applicant’s application for an order by the Tribunal under section 166(2).

The Commissioner made an application to strike out the Application.

Pursuant to Rule 8(3)(c), the Tribunal may strike out proceedings if it considers that there is no reasonable prospect of a case succeeding.

Having considered the relevant evidence and submissions of the parties, I conclude that the Application should be struck out as having no reasonable prospect of success. I set out my reasons below.
