    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCLA15/2015

    The Tribunal misdirected itself in law by construing the HKEDP as applying only to conduct-related performance; on a correct construction HKEDP can apply to performance failures generally and requires consideration of investigation and disciplinary procedures. Because the Tribunal did not apply the correct legal construction or consider matters that flowed from that construction, the appeal is allowed, the Tribunal's order is set aside and the claim is remitted to the Tribunal for rehearing by another presiding officer.
