The applicant applied for judicial review of a decision by the Appeals Committee of the National Dental Examining Board of Canada, which dismissed his appeal after he failed the Assessment of Clinical Skills Examination for the third time.
The applicant argued he was denied procedural fairness due to inadequate reasons and the lack of an oral hearing.
The Divisional Court dismissed the application, finding that the Appeals Committee provided adequate reasons addressing the applicant's specific concerns and that the appeal process did not require an oral hearing under the circumstances.
