Leave was granted and time extended because it was reasonably arguable that the Board, when refusing late filing, did not adequately take into account the merits of the applicant's non-refoulement appeal as a relevant matter of fact within its knowledge contrary to s.37ZT(2)-(3) and the established appellate authorities requiring merits be considered.
