Review periods on national disqualification

This section has no associated Explanatory Memorandum

52.  The period for review of a national disqualification shall be the period specified below instead of that in section 49N(8)(1) (national disqualification) of the Act where the circumstances are that—

(a)on making a decision to impose a national disqualification, the FHSAA states that it is of the opinion that the criminal or professional conduct of the disqualified person is such that there is no realistic prospect of a further review being successful if held within the period specified in section 49N(8)(a) of the Act, in which case the reference to “two years” in that provision shall be a reference to five years;

(b)on the last review by the FHSAA of a national disqualification the disqualified person was unsuccessful and the FHSAA states that it is of the opinion that there is no realistic prospect of a further review being successful if held within a period of three years beginning with the date of its decision on that review, in which case the reference to “one year” in section 49N(8)(b) of the Act shall be a reference to three years;

(c)the FHSAA states that it is of the opinion that because a criminal conviction considered by the FHSAA in reaching its decision has been quashed or the penalty reduced on appeal, there is a need for an immediate review, in which case the reference to “two years” or “one year” in section 49N(8) of the Act shall be a reference to the period that has already elapsed; or

(d)the FHSAA is of the opinion that because the decision of a licensing or regulatory body has been quashed or the penalty reduced on appeal, there is a need for an immediate review, in which case the reference to “two years” or “one year” in section 49N(8) of the Act shall be a reference to the period that has already elapsed.
