Article 27 Articles 24 to 26: supplementary
The Department may make regulations prescribing—
descriptions of information which the Authority, a licence holder or the Council may refuse to supply under Article 24 or 26; or
circumstances in which the Authority, a licence holder or the Council may refuse to comply with a direction under Article 24 or 26.
The Council may, if no person is prescribed for the purpose under paragraph (3), refer a failure by a licence holder to comply with a direction under Article 24 to the Authority.
The Department may make regulations for the purpose of enabling a failure to comply with a direction under Article 24 or 26 to be referred by the person who gave the direction to such person (other than the Authority) as may be prescribed by the regulations.
A person to whom such a failure is referred (whether under paragraph (2) or regulations under paragraph (3)) shall—
consider any representations made by either party;
determine whether the person failing to comply with the direction is entitled to refuse to do so and, if not, order him to comply with the direction; and
give notice of his determination and any order under paragraph (b), with reasons, to both parties.
A notice under paragraph (4) may be published by either party to the reference; and paragraphs (2) to (4) of Article 25 apply to the publication of such a notice as they apply to the publication of a notice under Article 24(4).
