Article 7 Time limit for appealing

Subject to paragraph (3) a notice of appeal must be served on the Commission no later than 42 days from (but excluding) the day on which the Secretary of State refused to deproscribe an organisation.

The notice of appeal shall be taken to have been served on the day on which it is received by the Commission at the address or fax number specified in the notice of the decision against which the appeal is made.

The Commission may accept a notice of appeal served after the expiry of the period permitted by paragraph (1) if it is of the opinion that, by reason of special circumstances, it is just and right to do so.
