In Brief
This appeal concerns whether a Tribunal correctly set aside a State Clearance without fully considering all relevant material and reports. The Supreme Court held that administrative Tribunals must base decisions on complete evidence. Where the Tribunal failed to consider relevant reports and made no proper factual determinations, the Court set aside the Tribunal's order and remitted the matter for reconsideration. The appeal was allowed in part, ensuring that both parties' cases would be heard afresh with all material evidence properly before the authorities.
