In Baverstock Construction Ltd v The Pension Regulator, the First-tier Tribunal struck out the appeal due to the Appellant's non-compliance with directions and lack of cooperation. The Appellant failed to provide necessary documents or clarifications despite multiple opportunities. The Tribunal determined that this non-compliance obstructed the fair handling of the proceedings, resulting in the appeal being dismissed under Rule 8(3)(a) and (b) of the Tribunal Procedure Rules.
Issues
