Ground 6
Ground 6
No reference has been made to the anonymous statement at p 39 that contradicts the whistleblower in response to whom CQC carried out their inspection, indicating that there was no general practice of locking residents’ doors overnight.
Having considered the appellant’s evidence about the person who she believes wrote this anonymous statement, we accept that there was nothing unlawful about DBS not placing any particular weight on it.
