Summary:
Umpire held that the chairperson of the BOR is authorized by subsection 80.(7) of the EI Reg. to determine the procedure at the hearing. Reversing the normal order of presentation is not a fatal error unless it results in the denial of a fair hearing. In this case, at the conclusion of the employer's submission, the chairperson asked claimant whether he had any questions or if there was anything he wished to add and he replied no. Therefore, there was no failure to observe a principle of natural justice in this case.
