Which role is not allowed to participate in a panel for a case?

The designated case manager is not allowed to participate in a panel for a case because their role typically involves overseeing the administrative aspects of the case, ensuring that procedures are followed, and facilitating communication among parties. Since they are responsible for managing the process, their involvement in decision-making could create a conflict of interest or bias in the panel’s evaluation. This separation of roles helps to maintain impartiality and integrity in the adjudication process.

In contrast, the other roles mentioned, such as assessors from the Board and legal advisors, serve specific functions that contribute to the panel's decision-making capability, while a member with conflicts of interest is outright prohibited from participating in a panel due to the inherent risks of compromised judgment.
