Full judgment

1. By directions dated 23 December 2025 the Tribunal informed the Appellant that it was considering striking out this appeal on the ground that it had no reasonable prospect of success, following a submission from the Respondent that the Appellant had failed his third attempt at the Part 3 (instructional ability) test, and invited any submissions from the Appellant in relation to this by 6 January 2026.

2. The Appellant did not respond to these directions.

3. The Tribunal listed an oral hearing of this appeal for 16 February 2026, which the Appellant attended. The Appellant was invited at this hearing to make any submissions he wished to make regarding the proposed striking out and confirmed that he had no such submissions to make.

4. The Appellant having failed his Part 3 test, I find that this appeal has no reasonable prospect of success and accordingly it is appropriate that it is struck out pursuing to rule 8(3)(c).

5. It is not necessary to go on to consider the merits of the appeal. Signed: Date: Judge Maton 16 February 2026
