Article 39 Application for special leave (Form 3)

An application for the special leave of the Tribunal for the review of an order under paragraph 5(3) of Schedule 6 to the Act shall be made by serving on the Secretary a notice in Form 3 together with a statement of the grounds for the application, and by serving a copy thereof on the person who was a party to the proceedings when the order of the Tribunal was made.

Within 14 days of the service upon him of a copy of the notice under this rule, the other party may make representations in writing to the Tribunal regarding the application for special leave, and he shall serve a copy of any such representations on every other party to the proceedings and inform the Secretary of the date of such service.

The Tribunal, after considering the application and any representations and, if it considers necessary, after having given the applicant and any such party who has made such representations an opportunity of being heard, shall grant or dismiss the application (with such order as to costs) as it may think fit, and if it grants the application it may give such directions as to the taking of any steps required or authorised under these Rules or as to any further matter as the Tribunal thinks fit.

The decision of the Tribunal shall be in writing and shall include a statement of its reasons, and the Secretary shall serve a copy thereof on the applicant and on any party who made representations.
