    Leave to appeal was refused because the record showed the hearing was conducted in Chinese with translation provided, the tribunal has statutory discretion under Cap.338 s16(1) to manage informal procedures and languages, the Statutory Languages Ordinance allows English filings subject to translation arrangements, and the claimant failed to demonstrate procedural irregularity or prejudice warranting appellate intervention.
