Section 18

The Registrar may, on such conditions as the Registrar may impose, permit the consultation to be conducted by telephone, videophone or any other electronic means (called in this section electronic means).

The Registrar may at any time direct any consultation by electronic means to cease and order the parties to appear (personally or by a representative permitted under section 23(2)) at a designated place for the consultation.

Any order made by the Registrar at the consultation by electronic means may be set aside on the application of any person aggrieved by that order if the Registrar is satisfied that either party has been impersonated or that any person who participated in the consultation did not have authority to represent the party concerned.

An application made under subsection (3) must be made within one month after the order was made or such further period as the Registrar may allow.
