At first instance, see BL O/221/05, the Hearing Officer had upheld the opposition. The applicant appealed to the Appointed Person, contending that the Hearing Officer had erred in his findings under goodwill, misrepresentation and damage.
Having reviewed the Hearing Officer’s decision in the light of the submissions made, however, the Appointed Person detected no error of principle and he upheld the decision.
