(b) for prescribing forms and fees in respect of proceedings in the Supreme Court and relating to costs of and incidental to any such proceedings;
(c) for prescribing the times in which any requirement of the rules is to be complied with;

(3) Rules made under this section may fix the number of judges of the Court of Appeal who may sit for any purpose;
Provided that—
(a) an uneven number of judges shall sit, which for the purposes of any final determination by the court other than the summary dismissal of an appeal, shall not be less than three; and
