It goes back to a person's good name as a professional practitioner, which is integral to anybody. To protect that, it is deemed appropriate that an office such as the High Court would be the appropriate office when a person's good name has been challenged by his or her employer. It is essentially still focusing on the registrant and keeping him or her in mind but that right is a very significant one. I acknowledge the learnedness of the speakers opposite who have quite an experience of the courts system of which I was not aware so well done to them.
