# The Consumer Credit Licensing (Appeals) Regulations 1998, Regulation 3: Time for and manner of making an appeal


(1) An appellant aggrieved by a determination must, if he wishes to appeal against it, appeal by sending a notice of appeal to the Secretary of State so that it is received not later than the end of the period of twenty-eight days beginning with the date on which notice of the determination is given.
(2) The Secretary of State may extend the time limit imposed by paragraph (1), but must not do so unless she is satisfied—
(a) that the circumstances are such that it would not be reasonable to expect the appellant to comply with the time limit, and
(b) that not to extend the time limit could result in substantial injustice.
(3) Where the appellant considers that the period of twenty-eight days referred to in paragraph (1) is likely to expire, or where it has expired, before he is or was able to give his notice of appeal, he must, if he wishes the Secretary of State to extend the time limit imposed by paragraph(1), send to the Secretary of State a statement of the reasons on which he relies to justify the delay in giving notice and the Secretary of State must consider any such statement in deciding whether or not to extend the time limit.
