JUDGE HARRIS

Between

COLE FAULKNER

Appellant

and

THE REGISTRAR OF APPROVED DRIVING INSTRUCTORS

Respondent

Decision: The appeal is struck out under rule 8(3)(a) for non-compliance with a Tribunal direction.

REASONS

1.

The Appellant lodged an appeal using the GRC1 form on 12 May 2025. The appeal was incomplete as the Appellant did not include a copy of the decision notice they sought to challenge.

2.

By Directions dated 13 May 2025 the Appellant was required to provide a copy of the decision to the Tribunal within 28 days. The Appellant submitted an email containing the ADI part 3 test result, which is not a decision which can be appealed in this Tribunal.

3.

By Directions dated 24 June 2025, the Appellant was directed to provide a copy of the decision they are seeking challenge to the Tribunal by 8 July 2025.

4.

The Appellant was directed to note that failure to comply with the Direction could lead to the Tribunal striking out the appeal for failure to comply without further direction.

5.

The Appellant failed to comply with the Direction dated 24 June 2025 and accordingly there are grounds to strike out the appeal.
