Judicial Summary

The issue in this appeal was whether the Disclosure and Barring Service鈥檚 decision to place the Appellant鈥檚 name on both the Adults鈥� Barred List and the Children鈥檚 Barred List was based on a mistake or mistakes of fact.

The Upper Tribunal decided that it was.

The decision is mainly about how to assess the probative value of evidence.
