I propose to take Questions Nos. 74, 76 and 81 together.

I can inform the Deputy that full consideration has been given to the candidate's request for an appeal and the candidate will be informed this week of the decision of the Appeals panel.  This included consideration of his late request for a reasonable accommodation on grounds of disability on which was advice was sought and which was considered in the context of fairness to all candidates.
