please contact the Hearing Officer (please see contact details on page 7).

during your hearing. A maximum of four can attend any one hearing (none of
whom will come from your Department (or any of its executive
agencies)/Agency. If you do object to observers being present simply mark
the form accordingly. No reason(s) needs to be given.
