Certain provisions to be followed in the hearing of appeals

44. The following provisions shall have effect for the purposes of an appeal made under article 43:

(a) the Tribunal shall summarily reject any appeal before it unless prima facie proof is brought to the effect that, by the time when the appeal was filed, the appellant had filed all documentation and information in support of his argument with the Authority in connection with the decision forming the subject of the appeal:

Provided that new evidence may be brought on appeal if the party producing the evidence proves that it had no knowledge of such evidence before the appeal or could not, with the means provided by law, have produced such evidence;

(b) the Tribunal shall summarily reject any appeal that is deemed by the Tribunal to be frivolous and, or vexatious. In any such case all costs shall be borne by the appellant, and the Tribunal may also impose on the appellant a nominal fine not exceeding one thousand euro (€1,000), which shall be recoverable by the Authority as a civil debt owed and due to the Authority on which there is an executive title.
