Article 12 Interlocutory directions and orders
The President may on the application of any party at the hearing or by notice before the hearings and after consulting the other members of the tribunal if he thinks fit, give such directions or orders of an interlocutory nature as he may consider just and expedient.
An application for an interlocutory direction or order before the hearing shall be by notice served—
in the case of an application by the Secretary of State, on the President and on all other parties to the reference; and
in the case of an application by a party other than the Secretary of State, on the Secretary of State who shall thereupon serve copies on the President and on all other parties to the reference.
The President may, if he thinks fit after giving the parties the opportunity to object, give such directions and make such orders as are mentioned in paragraph (1) of this Rule without an application having been made by any party in that behalf.
The President may, on the application of any party, extend any time limit imposed by these Rules subject to such terms (if any) as may seem just to him.
