LAND SURVEY (DISCIPLINARY PROCEDURE) REGULATION - SECT 8

Amendment of notice of inquiry

(1) Where before or at any stage of an inquiry it appears to the Disciplinary
Board that a notice of inquiry served under section 3 is defective, the
Chairman may give directions for the amendment of the notice as he thinks
necessary and may also adjourn the inquiry upon such terms as he thinks fit
and make orders as to costs (including orders as to costs in favour of either
party irrespective of the outcome of proceedings, where in the opinion of the
Chairman, the justice of the case requires it).

(2) The Chairman shall not give directions under subsection (1) if, having
regard to the merits of the case, he is of the opinion that the required
amendment cannot be made without injustice to the defendant.

(3) The secretary shall, as soon as it is practicable after the amendment
under subsection (1) of a notice of inquiry, give notice in writing of the
amendment to the parties.
