NOTICE OF WITHDRAWAL AND
REASONS FOR THE TRIBUNAL GIVING CONSENT
1. For ease of comprehension, the parties are referred to by their status on appeal before the First-tier Tribunal. By way of a letter dated 28 September 2015, the Respondent has requested that her case be treated as withdrawn by the Upper Tribunal.
2. This request was confirmed to me by oral submissions from Ms S Sreeraman, a Senior Presenting Officer, who confirmed that the withdrawal was confirmed by a Mr McGirr, a senior member of the Specialist Appeals Team.
3. Consent of the Upper Tribunal is required for a party to withdraw its case. Having carefully considered the facts of this appeal as a whole, and observing that the Appellant was the successful party before the First-tier Tribunal, I give such consent for the case to be withdrawn.
4. Accorindingly with my consent, and pursuant to rule 17(5) of the Tribunal Procedure (Upper Tribunal) Rules 2008, this appeal is recorded as "Withdrawn with the consent of the Upper Tribunal". This is a Notice pursuant to rule 17(5) to inform the parties that the Respondent's appeal is withdrawn.
5. The effect of the Respondent's case being withdrawn from the Upper Tribunal is that the proceedings before the Upper Tribunal are at an end. There is no appeal before the Upper Tribunal and the First-tier Tribunal's decision, allowing the Appellant's appeal, shall stand.
