RULE 1.88 CERTIFICATION OF TRANSCRIPT BY CHAIRMAN

When someone appeals a case and asks for a transcript to be part of the official record, the Chairman is responsible for making sure that transcript is accurate. The Chairman confirms this by signing off on it and applying the tribunal's official seal.

If the Chairman looks at the transcript and decides it doesn't cover enough of what happened, they can order that more testimony or evidence be typed up and added. This makes sure the appeal has a complete and accurate record to work with, not just bits and pieces.

This rule matters because appeals depend heavily on the written record of what happened in the original case. If the transcript is wrong or missing important parts, it could affect how the appeal turns out. The Chairman's certification is what makes the transcript official and trustworthy for the court reviewing the appeal.
