Regulation 5 Application period for a determination by the CAC

(1)

This regulation applies where—

(a)

a qualifying trade union gives an employer an access request, and

(b)

section 70ZE(1)(determinations by the Central Arbitration Committee) of the 1992 Act applies^f1.

(2)

The period prescribed for the purposes of section 70ZE(5)(b)^f2 of the 1992 Act ends at the end of the 55th working day after the day on which the access request is given.

(3)

But where the CAC is satisfied that it was not reasonably practicable for a party to apply for a determination under section 70ZE of the 1992 Act before the end of that period, the period prescribed ends at the end of the 70th working day after the day on which the access request is given.
