Procedure on appeal

(1) Motions of appeal against any penalties or sanctions imposed under these regulations shall be reviewed by the Director who shall forward the same to the Registrar. In cases involving fines, the appellant shall pay in advance fifty percent (50%) of the fine imposed before the motion of appeal is forwarded to the Registrar, but it shall be reimbursed in full if the appeal is successful. (2) All appeals shall be determined on the basis of written submissions unless the appellant requests an oral audience in which case the respondent shall also have a right to appear. (3) While hearing an appeal, the Registrar may seek such technical assistance as he may consider necessary.
