Regulation 14 Compliance with notification and consultation proceduresI1

The Scottish Ministers must before determining the appeal, to the extent not already done so by the relevant authority, comply with regulation 6 (notification of asset transfer request) and regulation 7 (publication of asset transfer request) of the Asset Transfer Request (Procedure) (Scotland) Regulations 2016^f1.

Where the Scottish Ministers notify any person in accordance with paragraph (1), references in these Regulations (other than regulation 5) to an interested party include any such person from whom the Scottish Ministers received representations (which are not subsequently withdrawn) in connection with the asset transfer request.
