Where an owner has served an offer notice and the recipient—
has not served either an acceptance notice or a rejection notice within 8 weeks from the date of receipt of the offer notice; or
has served a rejection notice,
then, subject to paragraph (2), the owner may dispose of the property as he sees fit; and these Regulations shall not apply to any subsequent disposal of the property by him.
If after the expiry of the period of 12 months, as determined in accordance with paragraphs (3) or (4) as appropriate, the owner retains his interest in the property, these Regulations shall apply if there is to be a disposal of a kind described in regulation 2(1).
In the circumstances referred to in paragraph (1)(a), the 12 month period begins the day after the expiry of the 8 week period.
In the circumstances referred to in paragraph (1)(b), the 12 month period begins the day after that on which the rejection notice is served.
