Consolidation of appeals

22.—(1) Where in making its decision the Bank made a finding that a person is not a fit and proper person to hold or, as the case may be, to remain in an office in the institution or imposed a requirement that he be removed from an office in the institution and both the institution and the person concerned appeal against the decision, the chairman may, at the preliminary hearing or at some other time, direct that the appeals shall be consolidated provided that the chairman shall not make such a direction without giving all parties concerned an opportunity to show cause why such a direction should not be made.

(2) If the chairman directs that the appeals shall be consolidated the secretary shall send to the person concerned a copy of any notice of supplementary grounds of appeal submitted by the institution under regulation 8(3) unless all of the matters contained in the notice have been disclosed to the person concerned under regulations 10(6) or 12(5) or unless the institution when showing cause why such a direction should not be made under paragraph (1) represented that it did not wish the notice of supplementary grounds of appeal to be disclosed to the person concerned and the person concerned consented to the notice not being disclosed to him.
