Présentation de l'éditeur

Written by leading practitioners with considerable experience of tribunals both as chairmen and lawyers, this work provides an authoritative examination of the general principles that apply to all regulatory and disciplinary tribunals, including coverage of the basis of the tribunal s authority and extent of its jurisdiction, natural justice, human rights, grounds for disciplinary action, investigations, decision to prosecute, hearings, evidence, appeals, and enforcement. Guidance on the practical application of the general principles is provided, looking at such issues as the retrospective effect of rule changes, malicious falsehood, data protection and freedom of information, whistleblowing, and guidance on defending a claim or how to avoid or defuse a claim.
