Record-submission obligations ensure departmental representatives receive case files to enable effective appellate advocacy and avoid adjournments. CEGAT observed that relevant appeal records are rarely sent by lower authorities to the Chief Departmental Representative unless called for, depriving Departmental Representatives of effective preparation and causing adjournments. Commissioners receiving notices of filing appeals must collect and forward relevant records to the CDR in advance; where appropriate, an officer conversant with the case should be deputed to brief Departmental Representatives. The Board should establish a systematic mechanism for record delivery and for preparing instructions to enable effective departmental representation.
