Report(b) produced under s8A(3) should have been disclosed to the solicitor as a matter of procedural fairness because the statute expressly required consideration of that report together with written representations, but the non-disclosure caused no actual prejudice or real risk of prejudice on the facts; accordingly, exercise of judicial review discretion refused and the Council's decisions (suspension under s8A(3) and refusal to issue a 2007 practising certificate) stand.
