Declaration — counsel not representing or advising for consideration 17 If a person who is the subject of an appeal retains counsel who is not a person referred to in any of paragraphs 91(2)(a) to (c) of the Act, both the person who is the subject of the appeal and their counsel must without delay provide the information and declarations set out in the schedule to the Division in writing.

Limitation on counsel’s retainer (2) If a person who is the subject of an appeal has notified the Division of a limitation on their counsel’s retainer, counsel is counsel of record only to the extent of the services to be provided within the limited retainer.

Language of the Appeal Choice of language 22 (1) A person who is the subject of an appeal must choose English or French as the language of the appeal. The person must indicate that choice in the notice of appeal if they are the appellant or in the notice of intent to respond if they are the respondent. Language — Minister’s appeals (2) If the appellant is the Minister, the language of the appeal is the language chosen by the person who is the subject of the appeal in the proceedings relating to the decision being appealed. Changing language (3) A person who is the subject of an appeal may change the language of the appeal that they chose under subrule (1) by notifying the Division and the Minister in writing without delay and, if a date for a proceeding has been fixed, the notice must be received by their recipients no later than 20 days before that date.

Designated Representatives Continuation of designation 23 (1) If the Refugee Protection Division designated a representative for the person who is the subject of the appeal in the proceedings relating to the decision being appealed, the representative is deemed to have been designated by the Division, unless the Division orders otherwise. Duty of counsel to notify (2) If the Refugee Protection Division did not designate a representative for the person who is the subject of the appeal and counsel for a party believes that the Division should designate a representative for the person because the person is under 18 years of age or is unable to appreciate the nature of the proceedings, counsel must without delay notify the Division in writing. Exception (3) Subrule (2) does not apply in the case of a person under 18 years of age whose appeal is joined with the appeal of their parent or legal guardian if the parent or legal guardian is 18 years of age or older. Content of notice (4) The notice must include the following information: (a) whether counsel is aware of a person in Canada who meets the requirements to be designated as a representative and, if so, the person’s contact information; (b) a copy of any available supporting documents; and (c) the reasons why counsel believes that a representative should be designated. Requirements for being designated (5) To be designated as a representative, a person must (a) be 18 years of age or older; (b) understand the nature of the proceedings; (c) be willing and able to act in the best interests of the person who is the subject of the appeal; and (d) not have interests that conflict with those of the person who is the subject of the appeal. Factors (6) When determining whether a person who is the subject of an appeal is unable to appreciate the nature of the proceedings, the Division must consider any relevant factors, including (a) whether the person can understand the reason for the proceeding and can instruct counsel; (b) the person’s statements and behaviour at the proceeding; (c) expert evidence, if any, on the person’s intellectual or physical faculties, age or mental condition; and (d) whether the person has had a representative designated for a proceeding in a division other than the Refugee Protection Division. Designation applies to all proceedings (7) The designation of a representative for a person who is under 18 years of age or who is unable to appreciate the nature of the proceedings applies to all subsequent proceedings in the Division with respect to that person unless the Division orders otherwise.
规则 23(7) 规定，对未满 18 岁的个人指定代表适用于该个人在难民上诉司的所有后续程序，除非该司另有命令。 RAD 指定的代表通常不会在其他部门建立这样的关系，例如，如果 RAD 将案件送回 RPD 并在送回之前指定了 DR。 相反，一个人在委员会其他部门的诉讼中被指定为代表，这只是 RPD 在此类情况下确定是否应指定代表时需要考虑的一个因素： 加拿大难民程序/指定代表#RPD 规则 20(5) - 确定索赔人或受保护人是否无法理解诉讼性质的因素。
End of designation — person reaches 18 years of age (8) The designation of a representative for a person who is under 18 years of age ends when the person reaches 18 years of age unless that representative has also been designated because the person is unable to appreciate the nature of the proceedings. Termination of designation (9) The Division may terminate a designation if the Division is of the opinion that the representative is no longer required or suitable and may designate a new representative if required. Designation criteria (10) Before designating a person as a representative, the Division must (a) assess the person’s ability to fulfil the responsibilities of a designated representative; and (b) ensure that the person has been informed of the responsibilities of a designated representative. Responsibilities of representative (11) The responsibilities of a designated representative include (a) deciding whether to retain counsel and, if counsel is retained, instructing counsel or assisting the represented person in instructing counsel; (b) making decisions regarding the appeal or assisting the represented person in making those decisions; (c) informing the represented person about the various stages and procedures in the processing of their case; (d) assisting in gathering evidence to support the represented person’s case and in providing evidence and, if necessary, being a witness at the hearing; (e) protecting the interests of the represented person and putting forward the best possible case to the Division; and (f) informing and consulting the represented person to the extent possible when making decisions about the case.

Time limit (4) Documents provided under this rule must be received by their recipients at the same time as the Division receives the appellant’s record, respondent’s record or the reply record, as the case may be. Deciding of constitutional question (5) The Division must not make a decision on the constitutional question until at least 10 days after the day on which it receives the notice of constitutional question.
RAD 规则 25(3)(c) 规定，当事方必须向任何利害关系人提供任何宪法问题通知的副本。 “利害关系人”的概念在 RAD 规则 1 中定义为“根据规则 46 提交参与上诉申请已被批准的人”。 RAD 规则 46 是专门管理三成员小组的规则：加拿大难民程序/RAD 规则第 3 部分 - 适用于所有上诉的规则#RAD 规则 46：个人申请参与三成员小组。

在决定是否允许申请时，部门必须考虑任何相关因素，包括规则 29(4) 中列出的因素。
[edit | edit source]在决定是否允许根据 RAD 规则 29 提交申请时，部门必须考虑任何相关因素，包括但不限于 RAD 规则 29(4) 中列出的三个因素。 RAD 必须根据 RAD 规则第 29(4) 条考虑所有三个标准，不能仅仅将其分析限制在其中一个相关因素上，即证据是否可以在上诉人完善的记录中提供。[2]虽然规则 37(3) 中列出的因素并非详尽无遗，但在因素列表之前使用“包括”一词而不是“例如”一词表明了其意图，即应考虑子规则中包含的每个因素。 这样做失败会导致程序公正的违反。[3]
即使在 RAD 征求有关某一问题的意见的情况下，RAD 规则 29 也可能适用。
[edit | edit source]RAD 规则 29(2) 规定，想要使用以前未提供过的文件或提供书面意见的人员必须提出申请。 即使在 RAD 征求意见的情况下也是如此。 在 _Gomez Guzman v. Canada_ 中，RAD 在因 COVID-19 大流行关闭后重新开放办公室后，向申请人律师写信，给出了 30 天的时间来提交支持上诉的文件，这些文件“[将] 在没有申请的情况下被接受”。 RAD 信件进一步说明，“规则 29 和 110(4) 的其他要求继续适用”。[4]小组没有接受该证据，认为该证据不符合 RAD 规则 29 的要求。 法院维持了这一决定，认为该小组在适用规则 29 时是正确的，尽管该意见是由部门提出的。[5]
RAD 规则 29 是否以及如何适用于法院下令的重新确定
[edit | edit source]RAD 规则 29(1) 规定，未在上诉人记录、答辩人记录或答辩记录中提供文件或书面意见的上诉对象，不得在未经部门允许的情况下使用该文件或提供该书面意见。 因此，该规则的意图是，在上诉对象最初提供其上诉人记录、答辩人记录或答辩记录时，无需满足 RAD 规则 29 的要求，但在之后提供文件或书面意见时，必须满足该要求。
在法院下令对文件重新确定（例如，案件被联邦法院退回重新审议时）的情况下，如何解释该规则可能会出现问题。 RAD 的做法是发送关于此类案件的标准格式信函，该信函明确表明上诉对象可以提交新的证据（受相关法定标准约束），并隐含地表明只要证据在信函中指定的截止日期之前收到，RAD 规则 29 就不适用。
请注意，任何对文件内容的异议应以书面形式提出，任何额外证据应符合新的证据的可采纳性要求（《移民与难民保护法》第 110(4) 条和 _MCI v. Singh_，2016 FCA 96 中规定的标准），以及最迟在 <日期> **之前** 提供给所有当事方和 RAD。 在有 RAD 听证会的情况下，除非联邦法院下令举行新的听证会，否则新的小组可能会或可能不会决定举行新的听证会。

RAD 规则 32(e) 规定，如果部门允许，文件可以通过电子邮件或其他电子方式提供。部门有一个关于“通过加拿大邮政 epost Connect 到难民上诉部门交换文件”的实践通知，允许这样做。[6]《难民上诉部门（RAD）恢复时限的实践通知》还规定，部门接受发送到列出电子邮件地址的电子邮件文件。[7]
Application if unable to provide document 33 (1) If a party is unable to provide a document in a way required by rule 32, the party may make an application to the Division to be allowed to provide the document in another way or to be excused from providing the document.

If the seventh day is not a working day, the document is considered to be received on the next working day. Extension of time limit — next working day (3) When the time limit for providing a document ends on a day that is not a working day, the time limit is extended to the next working day.

Oral application (2) If a date for a hearing has been fixed, the Division must not allow a party to make an application orally at the hearing unless the party, with reasonable effort, could not have made a written application before that date. Content of application (3) Unless these Rules provide otherwise, in a written application, the party must (a) state the decision the party wants the Division to make; (b) give reasons why the Division should make that decision; and (c) if there is another party and the views of that party are known, state whether the other party agrees to the application. Affidavit or statutory declaration (4) Unless these Rules provide otherwise, any evidence that the party wants the Division to consider with a written application must be given in an affidavit or statutory declaration that accompanies the application. Providing application to other party and Division (5) A party who makes a written application must provide (a) to any other party, a copy of the application and a copy of any affidavit or statutory declaration; and (b) to the Division, the original application and the original of any affidavit or statutory declaration, together with proof that a copy was provided to any other party.
《实践通知：通过加拿大邮政 epost Connect™ 向难民上诉部门交换文件》指出，如果根据规则 37 提交的申请是电子提交的，RAD 将不会要求提供签署的宣誓书或法定声明。[6]此外，《难民上诉部门：关于 COVID-19 大流行期间提交文件规则临时豁免的实践通知》规定，RAD 不会要求上诉人记录签署，也不会要求提供签署的宣誓书或法定声明作为支持规则 37 申请的文件。这样做是为了“考虑到 COVID-19 的持续存在，RAD 将继续鼓励与部门的电子沟通，并通过取消规则中关于提交支持上诉的文件的签名要求来促进保持身体距离”。[8]
How to Respond to a Written Application Responding to written application 38 (1) A response to a written application must be in writing and (a) state the decision the party wants the Division to make; and (b) give reasons why the Division should make that decision. Evidence in written response (2) Any evidence that the party wants the Division to consider with the written response must be given in an affidavit or statutory declaration that accompanies the response. Unless the Division requires it, an affidavit or statutory declaration is not required if the party who made the application was not required to give evidence in an affidavit or statutory declaration, together with the application. Providing response (3) A party who responds to a written application must provide (a) to the other party, a copy of the response and a copy of any affidavit or statutory declaration; and (b) to the Division, the original response and the original of any affidavit or statutory declaration, together with proof that a copy was provided to the other party. Time limit (4) Documents provided under subrule (3) must be received by their recipients no later than seven days after the day on which the party receives the copy of the application.
《实践通知：通过加拿大邮政 epost Connect™ 向难民上诉部门交换文件》指出，如果根据规则 37 提交的申请是电子提交的，RAD 将不会要求提供签署的宣誓书或法定声明。[6]考虑到 RAD 规则 38(2) 规定，如果提出申请的当事人不需要以这种形式提供证据，则不需要宣誓书或法定声明，并且考虑到此要求已对所有申请免除，因此可以说 RAD 规则 38(2) 中的要求也不适用。
How to Reply to a Written Response Replying to written response 39 (1) A reply to a written response must be in writing. Evidence in reply (2) Any evidence that the party wants the Division to consider with the written reply must be given in an affidavit or statutory declaration that accompanies the reply.

Providing reply (3) A party who replies to a written response must provide (a) to the other party, a copy of the reply and a copy of any affidavit or statutory declaration; and (b) to the Division, the original reply and the original of any affidavit or statutory declaration, together with proof that a copy was provided to the other party.

Application to separate (2) A party may make an application to the Division to separate appeals that are joined. Form of application and providing application (3) A party who makes an application to join or separate appeals must do so in accordance with rule 37, but the party is not required to give evidence in an affidavit or statutory declaration. The party must also (a) provide a copy of the application to any person who will be affected by the Division’s decision on the application; and (b) provide to the Division proof that the party provided the copy of the application to any affected person. Time limit (4) Documents provided under this rule must be received by their recipients, (a) if the person who is the subject of the appeal is the applicant, at the same time as the Division receives the person’s notice of appeal, notice of intent to respond or reply record; or (b) if the Minister is the applicant, at the same time as the Division receives the Minister’s notice of appeal, notice of intervention or reply. Factors (5) In deciding the application, the Division must consider any relevant factors, including whether (a) the appeals involve similar questions of fact or law; (b) allowing the application would promote the efficient administration of the Division’s work; and (c) allowing the application would likely cause an injustice.
Proceedings Conducted in Public Minister considered party 42 (1) For the purpose of this rule, the Minister is considered to be a party even if the Minister has not yet intervened in the appeal. Application (2) A person who makes an application to the Division to have a proceeding conducted in public must do so in writing and in accordance with this rule rather than rule 37.

对该规则的解释与相应的难民保护部门规则相似：加拿大难民程序/难民保护部门规则 62-63 - 重新开放索赔或申请。一个区别在于，在很大程度上基于纸质的难民申诉部门程序中，难民申诉部门认为，完善申诉不能为了收集和翻译新的证据而推迟，因为《难民申诉部门规则》第 29 条允许申请人在申诉完善后提交新的证据。[10]
Decisions Notice of decision 50 (1) When the Division makes a decision, other than an interlocutory decision, it must provide in writing a notice of decision to the person who is the subject of the appeal, to the Minister and to the Refugee Protection Division. The Division must also provide in writing a notice of decision to the UNHCR and to any interested person, if they provided written submissions in the appeal. Written reasons (2) The Division must provide written reasons for the decision, together with the notice of decision, if a hearing (a) was not held under subsection 110(6) of the Act; or (b) was held under subsection 110(6) of the Act and the decision and reasons were not given orally at the hearing. Request for written reasons (3) A request under paragraph 169(1)(e) of the Act for written reasons for a decision must be made in writing. When decision of single member takes effect 51 (1) A decision, other than an interlocutory decision, made by a single Division member takes effect (a) if made in writing, when the member signs and dates the reasons for the decision; and (b) if given orally at a hearing, when the member states the decision and gives the reasons. When decision of three-member panel takes effect (2) A decision, other than an interlocutory decision, made by a panel of three Division members takes effect (a) if made in writing, when all the members sign and date their reasons for the decision; and (b) if given orally at a hearing, when all the members state their decision and give their reasons.
难民申诉部门可以发布修正决定；这通常是为了纠正笔误。请参见以下难民保护部门规则：加拿大难民程序/难民保护部门规则 62-63 - 重新开放索赔或申请#委员会对重新开放已作出的决定有什么管辖权？.
规则 50(2)(b) 规定，如果难民上诉司举行听证会，它可以在听证会上口头宣布决定及其理由，并且这样做无需提供书面理由。然而，该法案第 169(c) 条规定，难民上诉司的所有决定必须以书面形式作出：加拿大难民程序/决定和理由。在规则的这一规定与该法案之间存在不一致的程度上，该法案第 169 条具有约束力。因此，非中间裁决的难民上诉司决定不得口头宣布。该规则中的这一规定似乎反映了该法案的早期版本，该版本允许口头提供理由，并且在该法案修订以排除这种情况时没有更新。然而，它也可以被理解为仅适用于在难民上诉司听证会上作出的中间裁决。
General Provisions No applicable rule 52 In the absence of a provision in these Rules dealing with a matter raised during the proceedings, the Division may do whatever is necessary to deal with the matter. Powers of Division 53 The Division may, after giving the parties notice and an opportunity to object, (a) act on its own initiative, without a party having to make an application or request to the Division; (b) change a requirement of a rule; (c) excuse a person from a requirement of a rule; and (d) extend a time limit, before or after the time limit has expired, or shorten it if the time limit has not expired. Failure to follow rules 54 Unless proceedings are declared invalid by the Division, a failure to follow any requirement of these Rules does not make the proceedings invalid.
