document lodged with the Tribunal (including a document forwarded to the Tribunal under section 24) or received in evidence by the Tribunal, should be prohibited or restricted,
a Tribunal shall take as the basis of its consideration the principle that it is desirable that hearings of proceedings before Tribunals should be held in public and that evidence given before Tribunals and the contents of documents lodged with Tribunals (including documents forwarded to Tribunals under section 24) or received in evidence by Tribunals should be made available to the public and to both the parties, but shall pay due regard to any reasons given to the Tribunal why the hearing should be held in private or why publication or disclosure of the evidence or the matter contained in the document should be prohibited or restricted.
“29
