Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

Subject to paragraph (2), a party shall be entitled to rely at any hearing only on those grounds stated in his notice of appeal (if he is the appellant), or in his written reply or statement under rule 22 (if he is any other party), and may give only such evidence as was given before the traffic commissioner.

(2)

Subject to paragraph 9(2) of Schedule 4 to the 1985 Act (tribunal not to consider new circumstances), the Tribunal may allow:

(a)

additional grounds to be put forward; and

(b)

evidence not given before the traffic commissioner to be admitted

and if so, details or copies of the same, as appropriate, shall be sent by the Tribunal to all parties prior to the hearing.
