Appealable order - Whether the communication would be considered as an ‘order’ for filing of appeal before the Tribunal - The Tribunal determined that the communication from the Superintendent was not a decision but merely conveyed the date fixed by the Commissioner. However, the Tribunal acknowledged that the appellant had a right to know why their request for cross-examination was denied, which was not clearly stated in the communication. Citing precedent, the Tribunal held that such communications could be considered as appealable orders, especially when the decision on cross-examination was neither accepted nor denied by the Commissioner. Therefore, the Tribunal concluded that the appellant correctly filed the appeal before them.
