3(1)While an advisory notice has effect, it is not lawful for the relevant authority concerned or any officer of that authority—
(a)if the notice relates to a decision, to make or implement the decision,
(b)if the notice relates to a course of action, to take or continue to take the course of action, or
(c)if the notice relates to an item of account, to enter the item of account.
