Regulation 6 Registration appeals proceedings: when a hearing is not necessaryI1
England and Wales
A registration appeal before a registration appeals panel may be determined without a hearing if—
the parties agree in writing that the proceedings may be determined without a hearing, and
the registration appeals panel decides that it is not necessary to hold a hearing.
Where in accordance with paragraph (1) proceedings are determined without a hearing—
the registration appeals panel’s final decision may be made by the chair of the panel;
at any stage during the proceedings the registration appeals panel or the chair of the panel may require a registration appeals hearing to be held.
SCW may by rules make provision about the steps which may or must be taken by the parties or a registration appeals panel to enable the panel to reach a decision as to whether it is necessary to hold a hearing.
