Paragraph 9 Action by interested parties on receipt of copy of application or reply

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

An interested party may give notice to the Secretary that he wishes to take part in the proceedings as a respondent.

(2)

That person must include in the notice—

(a)

the title of the proceedings, the name of the applicant and the case number;

(b)

his name and address and the name and address of every person who appears to him to be an interested party who is not already named in the application, with reasons for that person’s interest;

(c)

a statement whether or not he intends to resist the application and, if so, the reasons for resisting and or the position he will adopt;

(d)

whether he intends to be present or be represented at any hearing; and

(e)

the name, address and the profession of any representative and whether the Tribunal should deliver notices concerning the application to the representative instead of to him.

(3)

A person who wishes to take part in the proceedings must deliver to the Secretary copies of the notice and accompanying documents to enable the Secretary to send a copy to each of the other parties.

(4)

A notice given under this rule shall, if the person giving it is made a respondent to the proceedings, be treated as that person’s reply to the application.
