d to grant a licence to itself I find it comes ill from Nair to complain that the Board entertained its and the other competing applications. These two grounds fail.}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs27 \ltrch\fcs0

Ground (b) is dependent on the validity of the premise that the Board is bound to follow a precise procedure when \'93receiving any evidence and any representations for or against any application in respect of the proposed service\'94
 under the provision of Section 65(3) of the Act. In my view that premise cannot be justified. So long as the procedure adopted is fair there can, in my view, be no objection to it. Upon examination of the minutes of the meeting and Exhibit A to Mr. Nair
\rquote  s supporting affidavit, already referred to, I can find nothing to suggest that Mr. Kapadia who is an experienced, fo
rceful and effective advocate not known for bouts of shyness was in any way prevented from fully presenting his objections to the other applications or from fully presenting those facts and matters which he wished to urge in support of Nair\rquote 
s application. Examination of Exhibit A reveals that contrary to the requirements of Section 65 (3) Nair chose not to provide a full statement of the grounds of its objections to the competing applications but in each case stated \'93
further grounds of objection will be given on the day of the hearings\'94
. I can find no basis for such a procedure in the Act. In my view Nair failed to avail itself of the opportunity given by the Act to provide a full written statement of its case and was not prevented at the hearing from presen
ting such submissions as it wished to place before the Board. This ground also fails.}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs27 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs27\cf1\lang1033\langfe1033\langnp1033\insrsid2954565\charrsid2954565

The third ground (d) adverts to the fact that the Board did not give reasons for its decision. Both Dee Cees and the Board state in their written submissions (paragraph
s 5.01 and 6.02) that Nair did not ask for reasons to be provided. This however is not correct, as can be seen from paragraph No. 1 of Nair\rquote s letter to the Board dated 19 November 1996 (see Nair\rquote
