Regulation 11

An Appeal Committee may, on the Appeal Committee’s own initiative or on the application of any party to an appeal it is constituted to hear, direct the parties to attend a pre‑hearing conference before the Appeal Committee.

For the just, expeditious and economical disposal of an appeal it is constituted to hear, an Appeal Committee may give orders or directions to any party to the appeal, at a pre‑hearing conference mentioned in paragraph (1) or by letter served on that party.

If any party fails to comply with these Regulations or any order or direction made under these Regulations, the Appeal Committee may draw any reasonable inference from the failure and proceed with the determination or hearing of the appeal.
