Paragraph 9 Appearances at a hearing

The appellant and the enforcement authority shall be entitled to appear at the hearing of an appeal.

Any other person may appear at a hearing at the discretion of the adjudicator.

At the hearing of an appeal, the appellant may conduct his case himself (with assistance from any person if he wishes) or may be represented, by a solicitor, counsel or any other person.

If in any particular case the adjudicator is satisfied that there are sufficient reasons for doing so, he may prohibit a particular person from assisting or representing either party at the hearing.
