Regulation 36 TimeI1
Northern Ireland
The Chairman may having consulted the parties in the case extend any time limit mentioned in these Regulations if in the circumstances –
it would be unreasonable to expect it to be, or to have been, complied with; and
it would be unfair not to extend it.
The Chairman may reduce any time limit in these Regulations if he considers it reasonable to do so and the parties in the case agree to the reduction.
Where the time prescribed by these Regulations, or specified in any direction given by the Chairman, for taking any step expires on a day which is not a working day, the step must be treated as having been done in time if it is done on the next working day.
This regulation does not apply to the time limits provided for initiating an appeal in paragraph 1 of Schedule 1 and paragraph 1 of Schedule 2.
