In the First Tier Tribunal Case number:[2010] 1744SW.
Nidi Kate Ariemugovbe Applicant
General Social Care Council Respondent.
Attendance.
For the Applicant:
Mr S Townsend Counsel
Ms Parsons Royal College of Nursing
The applicant
O. Robinson Witness
For the Respondent
Mr A Benyon Counsel
Preliminary issues
1. We gave the applicant leave to introduce late evidence consisting of:
a. 3 affidavits from witnesses supporting the Applicant’s case that she had studied at and received a diploma in social work from Ambrose Ali University.
b. A transcript of a conduct hearing of a committee of the Respondent held on the 11th March 2010 concerning identical allegations against another as to those against the applicant and which are the subject of this appeal. In that case however the committee revoked the interim suspension order imposed whereas a differently constituted committee in the Applicant’s case on the 8th March 2010 had upheld the suspension order against her.
2. Counsel for the Respondent then took us through the matters relied on by the Respondent in resisting the appeal. In light of the new evidence we had agreed to admit we invited him to seek instructions over lunch from the Respondents as to its position.
3. After the lunch adjournment Counsel advised us that the Respondent no longer sought to oppose the appeal.
Order
This appeal be allowed and the order of the Respondent of the 8th March 2010 removing the Applicant from the register of social workers be quashed.
Tony Askham
Tribunal Judge
22.11.10.
