Theo Huckle QC & Christopher Johnson to speak at the APIL annual conference and AGM 2018  on Tuesday, 17 April (2.00pm - 3.00pm)

 

The de minimis argument in the context of noise induced hearing loss


• Pushing the limits of Rothwell: can (or should) NIHL which is objectively identifable ever be dismissed as de minimis? Is there room for a test case?

 

• An update on de minimis “hot topics” after Evans v Department of Energy and Climate Change and Anor:

 

• Losses at or above 4 kHz

 

• The status of the 2015 Guidelines (the LCB) • The phenomenon of “loudness recruitment” • The threshold of subjectively appreciable hearing loss.
