Decision

THE COMPLAINT IS DISMISSED.

Consideration 6

Extract:

"[A] decision [setting the place of home leave] is a discretionary one. The Tribunal will quash such a decision only if it was taken without authority or if it shows some procedural or formal defect or a mistake of fact or law, or if some essential fact was overlooked, or if there was abuse of authority, or if clearly mistaken conclusions were drawn from the evidence."
