Rectification of errors apparent on the face of record allows authorities to correct manifest mistakes subject to time limits and natural justice. Any authority that issued a decision, order, notice, certificate or other document may rectify errors apparent on the face of record on its own motion or when the error is brought to notice by an officer or the affected person, subject to statutory time limits and without prejudice to section 160; the longer time limit does not apply to purely clerical or arithmetical corrections arising from accidental slips or omissions, and where rectification adversely affects a person the principles of natural justice must be followed.
