Regulation 88 Rights of representationC1

An application under regulation 84 (right to apply for an appointed person to review a decision) or 86 (reference of disagreement to the Committee) may be made or continued on behalf of the applicant by a representative nominated by the applicant.

Where a person who has the right to make or has made such an application dies, the application may be made or continued on that person's behalf by the person's personal representative.

Where such a person is a minor or is or becomes otherwise incapable of acting on that person's own behalf, the application may be made or continued by a member of that person's family or some other person suitable to represent that person.

Where a representative is nominated before an application is made, the application shall specify that representative's full name and address and whether that is to be used for service on the applicant of any documents in connection with the application.

Where a representative's address is not to be so used, the appropriate appointed person or the Committee, as the case may be, shall send to the applicant a copy of a decision under regulation 85(1) (notice of decisions by the appointed person under regulation 84) or 87(1) (notice of decisions by the Committee under regulation 86) or an interim reply under regulation 85(2) or 87(2).
