We read and took account of:
An open bundle comprising of 149 pages (including indexes);
A closed bundle comprising of 76 pages (including indexes) containing the withheld material and the closed witness statement of Daniel Tobias Whale;
A ‘Gist of information redacted in the closed witness statement of Daniel Tobias Whale’ which was disclosed to all parties.
The Tribunal is satisfied that it is necessary to withhold the closed bundle from the Appellant on the basis that to do otherwise would defeat the purpose of the appeal.
