Conclusions
Disposal
Having decided that the overall DBS decision does not involve any material mistake of fact or error of law, there can only be one outcome to this appeal. This is because section 4(5) of the 2006 Act states as follows:
Unless the Upper Tribunal finds that has made a mistake of law or fact, it must confirm the decision of DBS.
That being so, we must by law confirm the DBS’s decision.
