Procedure at oral hearings

23.—(1) The Review Board shall conduct the oral hearing of the review in such manner as they consider most suitable to the clarification of the issues before them and generally as to the just handling of the proceedings, including where necessary adjournment of the proceedings.

(2) The applicant (if any) and any other person entitled to be heard shall, subject to paragraph (3), be entitled to give evidence, call witnesses, to question any witnesses and to address the Review Board both on evidence and generally on the subject matter of the hearing.

(3) The Review Board may receive evidence of any fact which appears to them to be relevant, even if such evidence would be inadmissible in proceedings before a court of law, but shall not refuse to admit any evidence which is admissible at law and is relevant.

(4) The Review Board may, if they are satisfied that it is just and reasonable to do so, permit the applicant to rely on grounds for the review which were not stated in the application, whether or not amended.
