The Court of Appeal held that the Industrial Court committed procedural error and illegality by relying primarily on domestic inquiry notes instead of independently assessing the evidence adduced at the Industrial Court; it found that submission of an unentitled claim amounted to dishonest conduct under CoBE General Rules Part IV 1.3(vi (read disjunctively from 1.3(v)) and that such misconduct justified dismissal, therefore the Industrial Court Award was quashed and the appeal allowed.
