Majority decision

In most cases the Board members reach a unanimous decision but in some circumstances the Board may conclude by a majority that the dismissal was fair. In these circumstances you will have a further right of appeal to the Head of your department/agency provided that this appeal is lodged within 14 days of receiving the full reasons for the Board’s decision.
