In my judgment, the issues can be summarised as follows – did the Defendant breach the implied terms in:
Its conclusion that the hug was sexually motivated;
Its treatment of the evidence on insight, remediation and risk of repetition, including the evidence of Dr Wilkinson; or
Imposing the sanction of termination.
