(c)

be received by the scheme administrator not later than one month after the date of the written notice of the determination.

(4)

The scheme administrator may extend the time limit in paragraph (3)(c) by a further period where the scheme administrator considers that there was good reason for the failure to request the review before the end of that initial period and for any delay since then in requesting a review under this regulation.
