   ...post-dates the WPI assessment carried out by Dr Armstrong of October/November 2020. Had it been available at the time of the WPI assessment, it is unlikely to have made any difference and it does not now establish any flaw in the WPI assessment. [101] Mr Durrant’s July 2022 diagnosis of “of the common extensor origin RIGHT elbow” post-dates the WPI assessment and the Review Decision. It does not establish any fundamental flaw in the WPI assessment. [102] Dr Newburn’s rep...

   ...the balance of the employment relationship problems, has been allowed. As noted earlier, the presumption is that costs should follow the event.59 That is a long-standing principle and should not be departed from except for very good reason. [101] It is correct to submit that in this instance, the manner in which the case was put to the Authority for the purposes of the second determination was very different from the basis on which the Court considered Mr and Mrs Cronin-Lampe’s...

[101] More recently, the High Court has described a review by this Office in the following way:2 A review by the LCRO is neither a judicial review nor an appeal.

Nor can the EA process or the revisit consent conditions incorporating SCOP design requirements. Condition 8 does not allow that.

At the time we were unsure of the reason for stress, but put it down to the changes to his facial appearance, and probably school exams.
