Referral of matters to Supreme Court
32 Referral of matters to Supreme Court
The Admission Board may refer the issue of whether or not an applicant is a fit and proper person to be admitted to the Supreme
Court for decision if, in the Board's opinion, it would be appropriate for the Court to consider the issue.
The Board also may refer to the Court an application for a declaration under section 31 if, in the Board's opinion, it would be appropriate for the Court to consider the application.
The Court has the same powers as the Board to deal with an application referred to it under this section and its decision on an application is taken to be a decision of the Board.
On a referral under this section, the Court may make the order or declaration it considers appropriate.
