Have you looked at the Terms of Reference or Constitution that defines the
authority of the hearings?   Thee ought to be something somewhere saying
that the decision makers must make 'informed' decisions.  There ought to be
a provision somewhere that  the decision makers have checked the credentials
of advisers on whose advice/information they base decisions.

Interesting idea.  But as James  pointed out here,  its not legal standing
in small claims.  That would be a large scale civil suit in federal court.
I am not prepared to handle that monster.....
