30. Adjournments
The tribunal may, if it is of the opinion that an adjournment of the hearing of a claim may result in prejudice to a party because of the disposal or loss of control of assets by a defendant, grant an adjournment only on payment into the tribunal of such sum of money, or the giving of such other security for the payment of the amount of any award, as the tribunal may think sufficient.
