Forthcoming Tribunal Hearings

Hearings and case management discussions of the First-tier Tribunal for Scotland (Housing and Property Chamber) are held in public. Below you will find the list of hearings and case management discussions arranged in date order. The lists contains all hearings and case management discussions scheduled to take place in the coming month. This page will be updated weekly with the schedule up to a month ahead.

Observing a hearing or case mangement discussion

If you wish to attend as an observer, you are asked to contact the Housing and Property Chamber administration in advance of the hearing as space is limited. Places will be allocated on the day on a first come, first served basis and places cannot be guaranteed. When attending a hearing and case management discussion, observers are asked to bear in mind the following points:

• Hearings and case management discussions can be subject to sudden cancellation or postponement. You are advised to confirm that it is still taking place by telephoning the administration on, or shortly before, the scheduled date.
• The Tribunal may exclude observers from the proceedings or part of the proceedings, either on their own initiative or on the application of any party, where the Tribunal decide that public proceedings would adversely affect the fairness of the proceedings.
• The Tribunal may consider any such application on the day of the hearing or case management discussion, although parties are encouraged to make any such application in advance. Guidance is available on the website.
• Where all or any part of a hearing or case management discussion is held in private, this will not be open to observers
• Whilst you will be able to attend a hearing or case management discussion, you should be aware that you will not be entitled to participate in the proceedings in any way. In addition you will not be provided with any papers or documentation in relation to the particular case.
• You should also bear in mind that the information which is discussed in hearings and case management discussions can often be sensitive and complex.
