	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/06/2022 answer text <p>In the First-tier Tribunal (Special Needs and Disability) (SEND), all appeals are listed for hearing on the next available date, on receipt. If the hearing date allocated is unsuitable for whatever reason, the cancellation of the original hearing date is counted as a postponement in the SEND tribunal’s case-handling system – GAPS2. If that second hearing is cancelled and the case re-listed, that is counted as another postponement in the system. Examples of the reasons why a hearing might be postponed include that:</p><p> </p><ul><li>the date is unsuitable for one or both of the parties involved;</li><li>a key witness is unavailable;</li><li>the child or young person who is the subject of the appeal is unwell;</li><li>the case isn’t ready for hearing because evidence has not been produced; and</li><li>the tribunal is unable to constitute a panel to hear the case.</li></ul><p> </p><p>The number of hearings postponed in the last 12 months (i.e. from 1 May 2021 to 30 April 2022) by age of the young person concerned is set out in the table below.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Age of child/young person*</p></td><td><p>No. of hearings postponed</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>0-1</p></td><td><p>9</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>1-2</p></td><td><p>7</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2-3</p></td><td><p>3</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>3-4</p></td><td><p>14</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>4-5</p></td><td><p>96</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>5-6</p></td><td><p>406</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>6-7</p></td><td><p>322</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>7-8</p></td><td><p>397</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>8-9</p></td><td><p>370</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>9-10</p></td><td><p>379</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>10-11</p></td><td><p>501</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>11-12</p></td><td><p>781</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>12-13</p></td><td><p>981</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>13-14</p></td><td><p>428</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>14-15</p></td><td><p>420</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>15-16</p></td><td><p>381</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>16-17</p></td><td><p>271</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>17-18</p></td><td><p>211</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>18-19</p></td><td><p>107</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>19-20</p></td><td><p>93</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>20-21</p></td><td><p>99</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>21-22</p></td><td><p>47</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>22-23</p></td><td><p>34</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>23-24</p></td><td><p>42</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>24-25</p></td><td><p>16</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>25</p></td><td><p>22</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>*The age range is determined by the date of birth of the child or young person subject of the appeal.</p> answering member constituency South Suffolk answering member printed James Cartlidge question first answered 10/06/2022 09:33:43 answering member 4519 label Biography information for James Cartlidge
