Paragraph 3 F1
Not yet in force
The Appeals Board may strike out a notice of appeal at any stage in the proceedings if—
having considered the grounds of appeal set out in the notice of appeal—
it considers that the notice of appeal discloses no valid ground of appeal; or
it is of the opinion that the appeal is vexatious, frivolous or without substance or foundation; or
the notice of appeal does not comply with paragraph 1 in a substantial respect, and the appellant has not remedied the defect pursuant to a direction under paragraph 2(1); or
the appellant fails to comply with a direction of the Appeals Board.
Where the Appeals Board strikes out a notice of appeal it may make any consequential order it considers appropriate.
