Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(1)

Except where an appeal is determined without a hearing in accordance with rule 35 or summarily in accordance with rule 36, a hearing shall be held to decide an appeal.

(2)

Unless it considers —

(a)

that it is necessary in the interests of justice, and

(b)

that it would save time and avoid expense

to remit the case to the same or another special adjudicator for determination by him in accordance with any directions given to him by the Tribunal, the Tribunal shall determine the appeal itself.
