A retiring chair shall also remain a member for the purpose of certifying questions of law if appeal is taken.
(b)A case shall be deemed completed when the Board enters a final order even though judicial review is sought pursuant to 19 V.S.A. § 5(c) or the case remanded to the Board. Upon remand, the Board then in office may consider relevant evidence, including any part of the transcript of testimony in the proceedings prior to appeal. (Added 1985, No. 222 (Adj.
