(b)	more than one person or body responsible to appoint a panel
involves or involve allegations of multiple acts of misconduct arising out of the same or related circumstances, notwithstanding anything in regulation 55 the report or reports may be dealt with jointly by a single responsible officer or a single panel.
48	Joint misconduct
(1)	If a report of misconduct alleges that 2 or more students engaged jointly or in concert in an act or acts of misconduct and that report is the subject of a panel hearing, the panel must hear the allegations together unless:
(a)	the chair is satisfied that it would be unreasonable or impractical for that to be done; or
(b)	the chair upholds an objection made by one of the students under subregulation (2).
