37(2) (d)?

Setting aside a decision which disposes of proceedings
37.—(1) The Tribunal may set aside a decision which disposes of proceedings, or part of such a
decision, and re-make the decision, or the relevant part of it, if—
(a) the Tribunal considers that it is in the interests of justice to do so; and
(b) one or more of the conditions in paragraph (2) are satisfied.
(2) The conditions are—
(a) a document relating to the proceedings was not sent to, or was not received at an
appropriate time by, a party or a party’s representative;
(b) a document relating to the proceedings was not sent to the Tribunal at an appropriate
time;
(c) a party, or a party’s representative, was not present at a hearing related to the
proceedings; or
(d) there has been some other procedural irregularity in the proceedings.
(3) A party applying for a decision, or part of a decision, to be set aside under paragraph (1) must
make a written application to the Tribunal so that it is received no later than 1 month after the date
on which the Tribunal sent notice of the decision to the party.
