(1) The Scottish Ministers may by a further direction revoke a direction under paragraph 3 at any time before the determination of the appeal.
(2) Such a further direction must—
(a) state the reasons for which it is given, and
(b) be served on—
(i) the person, if any, previously appointed to determine the appeal, and
(ii) the appellant.
(3) Where such a further direction has been given, the provisions of this schedule relevant to the appeal are to apply, subject to sub-paragraph (4), as if no direction under paragraph 3 had been given.
