Unless ordersN.I.
33.—(1) An order may specify that, if it is not complied with by the date specified, the claim or response, or part of it, shall be dismissed without further order. If a claim or response, or part of it, is dismissed on this basis the parties shall be given written notice confirming what has occurred.
(2) A party whose claim or response has been dismissed, in whole or in part, as a result of such an order may apply to the tribunal in writing, within 14 days of the date that the notice was sent, to have the order set aside on the basis that it is in the interests of justice to do so. Unless the application includes a request for a hearing, the tribunal may determine it on the basis of written representations.
(3) Where a response is dismissed under this rule, the effect will be as if no response had been presented, as set out in rule 19.
