(2) | The said division of the Supreme Court shall inquire into and consider the matter and may confirm, vary or set aside the decision of, or the penalty imposed by, the council or give such other decision or impose such other penalty as in its opinion the council should have given or imposed, and may make such order as to costs as it may deem fit: Provided that the decision of the council shall not be set aside by reason only of an irregularity which did not embarrass or prejudice the appellant in answering the charge or in the conduct of his defence. |
