The judgment emphasized the need for a structured approach in handling the appeal process, indicating a willingness to grant relief subject to procedural compliance and further review.In conclusion, the Tribunal's decision reflected a nuanced evaluation of the waiver request, highlighting the importance of establishing a prima facie case and complying with specified conditions before seeking complete relief.
