PURPOSE
The CDP will be the ECB’s new independent tribunal, responsible for adjudicating on certain regulatory disciplinary matters within professional cricket on behalf of the ECB Board. Its function is to consider cases brought before it by the Cricket Regulator (the body responsible for monitoring compliance with and enforcement of adherence to the game’s regulations on behalf of the ECB) in relation to the ECB’s disciplinary regulations and other rules and/or regulations which contain disciplinary powers to be discharged by the CDP (the ‘Regulations’).
This is an exciting opportunity for an individual with suitable legal and sports disciplinary expertise to influence the future of cricket’s disciplinary panel structure. As Chair, the successful candidate will be presiding over specific disciplinary cases, appointing the other members of the CDP, and allocating those individuals to hear specific cases.
Most cases which come before the CDP relate to a breach of the ECB’s Professional Conduct Regulations, which contain various misconduct offences including bringing the game into disrepute (which gives rise to broad and varied cases).
However, the CDP (and the Chair in particular) also has a role to play in relation to other Regulations, including the Anti-Corruption Code, Player and Match Officials’ Minimum Standards, cricket Playing Conditions, Bowling Review Regulations, Pitch Regulations and Head Protector Regulations.
This is a high-profile and exciting role which would suit an experienced barrister, solicitor or judge who holds extensive knowledge of best practice in conducting sports disciplinary matters and arbitrations in an arbitral (or judicial) capacity.
To succeed in this role, the successful candidate will not only have the required skills and experience around sports disciplinary matters, but also have a passion for sport and be motivated to draw on their demonstrable track record to fulfil the CDP’s role as an effective independent tribunal.
