(a) specifying—
(i) the date of issue of the notice, and
(ii) the information required by regulation 5(1)(d) which the assessor considers has not been supplied, and
(b) advising the proposer that the assessor will make a decision on the proposal, namely not to alter the relevant entry in the valuation roll, if, at the end of the last day of the period of 28 days beginning with the day on which the notice is presumed to have been received by the proposer, the proposer has neither provided the information specified in the notice, such that the proposal is considered to be complete, nor requested a review under paragraph (3).
(3) The proposer may, within the period of 14 days beginning with the day on which the notice under paragraph (2) is presumed to have been received, request that the decision of the assessor that the proposal is incomplete be reviewed.
(4) Where the decision made as a result of a review under paragraph (3) is that the proposal is incomplete, the assessor must send to the proposer a notice in writing—

(b) advising the proposer—
(i) that the information specified must be received within the period of 28 days beginning with the day on which the notice is presumed to have been received by the proposer,
(ii) that if the proposer fails to supply the information, such that the proposal is considered to be complete, the assessor will make a decision on the proposal, namely not to alter the relevant entry in the valuation roll.
(5) The person who undertakes the review must not be the same person who made the decision under paragraph (1).
