Leave was refused because the applicant failed to comply with the mandatory requirement to state grounds in the leave form and, substantively, the PIC lawfully and rationally concluded on the materials that there was insufficient evidence of a reasonable prospect of professional misconduct by Dr Tang; the matters relied upon by the PIC (team treatment, psychiatric assessment and court order) were relevant and lawful to consider, and MHO s69 shields practitioners absent bad faith or lack of reasonable care.
