A magistrate must make a formal, precise referral under s.29; the prosecution's informal restriction of the referral to parts of the signboard deprived the Tribunal of considering the 'matter as a whole' and the relevant statutory factors in s.10(1), rendering the Tribunal's decision legally flawed and requiring the Tribunal to rehear the matter.
