The National Anti-Doping Panel (NADP) is the United Kingdom’s independent tribunal responsible for adjudicating anti-doping disputes in sport. It is operated by Sport Resolutions in accordance with its own procedural rules and is entirely independent of UK Anti-Doping, which is responsible for investigating, charging and prosecuting cases before the NADP.
The NADP is established by the United Kingdom’s Anti-Doping Policy and is funded by the UK government’s Departure for Culture Media and Sport (DCMS). Sport Resolutions has been awarded a new contract by DCMS to operate the NADP until 1 April 2018.
