Our decision in summary
Our decision in summary
We allow the appeal by SB and remit her case to the DBS to make a new decision. SB will remain on both barred lists in the meantime.
The appeal is allowed because the DBS (i) made a mistake of fact about SB failing to accurately report and record the incident which occurred on 10 August 2022, (ii) erred in law in failing to take into account all the relevant evidence about whether SB had shown insight and remorse for what had occurred on 10 August 2022, and (iii) it further erred law by failing to take into account the character references SB had supplied to the DBS. The appeal is dismissed on all other grounds.
