Section 53: Outcome of a section 52 review
150.Subsection (1) sets out that a panel conducting a review under section 52 must consider whether the panel which gave the direction ought to have done so, and, where additional evidence is provided to or obtained by the panel conducting the review, whether the question of the direction to be given (if any) ought to be determined differently as a result. In either case, the review panel may uphold or reverse the original direction.
151.Subsection (2) requires the Scottish Ministers to notify the applicant of the review panel’s determination, and to provide the applicant with a summary of the panel’s reasons for reaching that determination.
152.In accordance with subsection (3), the determination of a review panel under this section is final. This means that there is no further right of appeal in respect of this decision.
