4.—(1) A complainant may, within 14 days after the notice mentioned in paragraph 3 is sent to him, appeal to the Secretary of State against a decision of an appropriate committee under that paragraph by giving notice of appeal in writing to the Secretary of State, setting out the grounds for the appeal.

(2) On receiving the notice of appeal the Secretary of State shall send a copy of it to the practitioner, and the practitioner may, within 14 days of the copy being sent to him, send to the Secretary of State a statement of the grounds on which he contends that an investigation should not take place.

(3) Where, on consideration of the appeal, the Secretary of State is satisfied that the failure (to give notice of the complaint immediately before the expiry of the relevant period specified in regulation 5(2) or (3) or on any subsequent day falling before the date on which such notice was in fact given) was occasioned by illness or other reasonable cause, he may also decide to give his consent to the investigation of the complaint.

(4) The Secretary of State shall give notice in writing to the complainant, the practitioner and the FHSA of his decision on the appeal, giving his reasons for the decision.
