The appeal is dismissed: the Tribunal’s majority decision that the article was indecent was open to it on application of the statutory s10(1) criteria; the Tribunal cannot decide a s29(2) indecency referral by reference to the s8(2)(b) classification scheme; parties to the appeal must be those from the original proceedings (TELA substituted for the Tribunal); and proof of possible harm is not a prerequisite to establish indecency under the statute.
