Consideration 2

Extract:

To allow review on the grounds that the Tribunal's legal reasoning was mistaken would be to encourage the dissatisfied party to go on challenging the judgment indefinitely in disregard of the res judicata rule. The Tribunal so held in Judgment 681, in which it declined to consider criticisms of its original reasoning: the complainant's plea was a mistake of law and it was inadmissible.
