No person may be represented by counsel at any hearing or adjudicative process in respect of any matter that arises on any race day and that is held on that day.

Subclause (1) does not apply to a hearing of an adjudicative committee that is not held on the race day on which the subject matter of the hearing arose, or to a hearing held by an appeals tribunal.

Any person properly entitled, by or under relevant racing rules, to appeal to an appeals tribunal may do so.

An appeal properly brought under the relevant racing rules must be heard and determined by an appeals tribunal in accordance with those rules.

No person is entitled to appeal to any appeals tribunal against any decision made on the day of a race in respect of placings in that race or stakes payable for those placings.

Nothing in subclause (1) prevents an adjudicative committee, at any time after the day of any race, from disqualifying a horse for a race, and making any order the committee considers appropriate as to the alteration of the placings in the race and the stakes payable for those placings,—

If an adjudicative committee decides, after the day of a race, that a horse should be disqualified for the race on any ground referred to in subclause (2), the owner of the horse may appeal against the decision to an appeals tribunal.

Witnesses and counsel appearing before an adjudicative committee or an appeals tribunal have the same privileges and immunities that they would have in proceedings in the District Court.

No member of the Racing Integrity Board or person who is a member of an adjudicative committee or an appeals tribunal is personally liable—
