Paragraph 2 Further informationI1

In relation to any application to which this Schedule applies, the discharging authority has the right to request such further information from the undertaker as is reasonably necessary to enable it to consider the application.

If the discharging authority considers such further information to be necessary it must, as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within 20 business days of receipt of the application notify the undertaker in writing specifying the further information required.

If the discharging authority does not give such notification as specified in sub-paragraph (2) it is to be deemed to have sufficient information to consider the application and is not subsequently entitled to request further information without the prior agreement of the undertaker.
