ON BEHALF OF RESPONDENT

	MR JUSTICE MUMMERY (PRESIDENT):  This is the adjourned hearing of the appeal by Mr Hoolash against the order of the Registrar, dated the 15th December 1993, in which she refused to extend the time for appealing against the decision of the Industrial Tribunal.

	The matter first came on for hearing on the 16th May 1994.  The application was adjourned until today for the Appellant to produce to the Tribunal (1) his passport and any other evidence that he had of his absence abroad at the relevant time for appealing and (2) an explanation as to why the appeal was not brought at an earlier time by someone else concerned on his behalf with the business carried on by him.

	Although the matter was listed for hearing today Mr Hoolash has not attended nor has his lay representative, Mr Igham.  In those circumstances the appeal will be dismissed.  The relevant information which the Tribunal requires to deal with the appeal has not been produced.  There has therefore been a default in complying with an order of the Tribunal.  That justifies dismissal of the appeal.
