(5) The Tribunal may, either of its own initiative or on the application of a party under paragraph (6), make an order restricting or prohibiting the use of any document provided in the course of proceedings, even where the document has been read to or by the Tribunal, or referred to, at a hearing which has been held in public.
(6) An application for such an order may be made—
(a) by a party;
