an application for a pension scheme to be registered is made, but
the scheme administrator is not notified under section 153(6) within the period of 6 months after the day on which the application is made.
The scheme administrator may appeal to the tribunal as if, at the end of that period of 6 months, the scheme administrator had been notified under section 153(6) of a decision not to register the scheme; and section 156(5) to (8) applies accordingly.
