An Authorised Officer DECIDED to grant Mr Simon James Browner a practising certificate for the practice year 2011/2012 free from conditions. 

Reasons/basis

Mr Browner is subject to Regulation 3.1(a)(i), (b), (g) and (n) of the SRA Practising Regulations 2011.

 The Authorised Officer had consideration Mr Browner's recent regulatory history along with the regulatory objectives set out in Section 1 and Section 28 of the Legal Services Act 2007 along with the tests set out in the matters of A Odunlami [2008] EWCA Civ 1598 and F Razeen [2008] EWCA Civ 1220.

The Authorised Officer was satisfied that it was not necessary, reasonable or proportionate in the interests of protection of the public to continue to impose the condition imposed on Mr Browner's practising certificate for the practice year 2010/2011. The Authorised Officer was also satisfied that none of the purposes specified in Regulation 7 of the SRA Practising Regulations 2011 make it necessary in the interests of the public to impose any practising certificate condition.

Accordingly, the Authorised Officer authorised the issue of an unconditional practising certificate.
