There is an expectation our hearings are held in public. However, sometimes part or all of a hearing may be held in private due to the confidential nature of the information involved, such as health issues. The Committee may exclude the public and press while it is sitting in private.
In these circumstances, you will be asked to leave the hearing and the case officer for the hearing will notify you if and when you can re-join.
We record our hearings. However, it is strictly prohibited for any other person to record, screen shot, photograph, copy or share our hearing proceedings in any way.
Hearings can be subject to sudden cancellation or postponement.
