Regulation 17 Decisions
The commissioner may give a decision orally at a hearing or may reserve the decision to be given in writing at a later date.
The commissioner must send the appellant and respondent as soon as reasonably practicable after making a decision disposing of an appeal—
a decision notice stating the commissioner’s decision and the reasons for the decision; and
notification of the right to appeal to the Upper Tribunal against the decision and the time within which and manner in which the right of appeal may be exercised.
But the commissioner need not provide reasons for a decision which is made by consent of the parties.
The commissioner must publish, as soon as reasonably practicable after making a decision disposing of an appeal, a notice containing details of that decision in Notices and Proceedings.
The commissioner may at any time correct any clerical mistake or other accidental slip or omission in a decision by sending notification of the amended decision to the appellant and respondent and making any necessary amendment to any notice published under paragraph (4).
