REASONS 1. The Appellant lodged an appeal using the GRC1 form on 4 August 2024.

The Appellant did not comply with that Direction and did not respond to the Tribunal. 3. By Directions dated 17 October 2025, the Appellant was directed by 31 October 2025 to confirm whether they wish to withdraw or continue the appeal, or make representations as to why the appeal should not be struck out. 4. The Appellant was directed to note that failure to comply with this Direction could lead to the Tribunal striking out the appeal for failure to comply without further direction. © CROWN COPYRIGHT 2025 5. The Appellant failed to comply with the Direction dated 17 October 2025 and accordingly there are grounds to strike out the appeal. Signed: Judge Harris Date: 7 January 2026 2
