Leave to apply for judicial review was refused because the applicant's grounds were not reasonably arguable: TCAB applied correct legal principles, accepted the applicant's evidence, there was no procedural unfairness in deciding the appeal on the papers, no demonstrated error of law or disregard of COI, and the substantive decisions satisfied the enhanced Wednesbury standard so there was no realistic prospect of success.
