(6) X may appeal to the Care Tribunal against a decision under this Article not to remove him from the children’s barred list and Article 8 of the Order applies in relation to an appeal under this paragraph as it applies in relation to an appeal under paragraph (1) of that Article.

(1)

See regulation 8 of the 2007 Regulations.

An individual included in the list kept for the purposes of the 2007 Regulations may in certain circumstances make representations under regulation 7, seek a revocation of the prohibition by the Department of Education under regulation 9 and may appeal to the Care Tribunal under regulation 10 of those Regulations.
