Regulation 27 Determination of appeals
The area committee shall, on an appeal under regulation 26, reconsider the application for approval or authority or the circumstances set out in paragraph (1)(a) to (c) of regulation 25 and shall–
dismiss the appeal; or
in the case of an application for approval or authority, grant the application subject to such terms and conditions as the committee thinks fit; or
in the case of a decision to withdraw approval, quash that decision.
The decision of the area committee on an appeal shall be final and it shall give notice in writing of its decision, and the reasons for it, to the client and to any solicitor acting for him.
Where the Area Director’s decision to withdraw approval is quashed on appeal by the area committee, the solicitor shall, in respect of proceedings specified in regulation 7(1)(a) of the Scope regulations, notify any other party to the proceedings and the court, if any, in which the proceedings are pending.
