Preliminary matters

Application to conduct hearing in private

  1. Ms Khorassani applied to hold parts of the hearing in private as information about the Registrant’s health and well-being will be discussed. Having taken legal advice from the Legal Assessor the Panel balanced the interests of the Registrant with the open justice principle and decided to hold the hearing in private to protect the Registrant’s entitlement to privacy in respect of her health and well-being. As such, this is a redacted version of the Panel’s full decision.
