- Court
- High Court
The High Court held the Tribunal's 30 May 2023 minute unlawfully contradicted and sought to narrow an earlier unredacted 17 May 2023 order made under s 240 that prohibited publication of the complainant's name and any personal information that might lead to identification; the 17 May 2023 order remained in force under s 240(2) until revoked on application, so the 30 May minute was reversed and set aside, and the High Court ordered publication of the complainant's name and any personal information that might lead to identification in reports of the proceeding be forbidden.
