Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(1)

Where a decision of the National Assembly on an application or appeal in respect of which an inquiry has been held is quashed in proceedings before any court, the National Assembly—

(a)

must send to the persons entitled to, and who did, take part in the inquiry a written statement of the matters with respect to which further representations are invited for the purposes of its further consideration of the application or appeal;

(b)

must afford to those persons the opportunity of making written representations to it in respect of those matters or of asking for the re-opening of the inquiry; and

(c)

may, as it thinks, cause the inquiry to be re-opened (whether by the same or a different inspector) and if it does so paragraphs (3) to (8) of rule 10 apply as if the references to an inquiry were references to a re-opened inquiry.

(2)

Those persons making representations or asking for the inquiry to be re-opened under paragraph (1)(b) must ensure that such representations or requests are received by the National Assembly within 3 weeks of the date of the written statement sent under paragraph (1)(a).
