Payment into the tribunal

(1) All funds to be paid into the tribunal shall be paid to the registrar.

or not (to be called the Labour Tribunal Suitors' Funds Account) at such bank
as the Director of Accounting Services shall direct.

(3) The presiding officer may direct that an amount equal to the moneys
standing to the credit of a particular person on a particular date as recorded

referred to in paragraph (2) to a separate interest-bearing account (to be
opened in the name of the case) with such bank as the presiding officer shall
direct and that presiding officer may, if he considers it appropriate, give a
direction regarding the manner in which any interest is to be treated. (L.N.
