Written answers

The allocation of cases is on rotational basis. The system pre Covid-19 was that each member of the panel had indicated the areas in which they could do work and were assigned cases for those areas on a rotational basis. From 30 March onwards, all panel members were assigned cases across the entire country as the tribunals were being held remotely.
