Irregularities
18.—(1) Any irregularity resulting from failure to comply with any provision of this Schedule before the Council has reached its decision shall not of itself render the proceedings void.
(2) Where any such irregularity comes to the attention of the Council it may, and must if it considers either party may have been prejudiced by the irregularity, give such directions as it thinks just, before reaching its decision, to cure or waive the irregularity.
