Contents of a notice of appeal

3.  A notice of appeal must—

(a) state the full name and address of the appellant and of any person authorised to act on behalf of the appellant in relation to the appeal;

(b) except in the case of a deemed refusal appeal, be accompanied by a copy of the decision notice;

(c) in the case of a consent appeal relating to a refusal to give consent for an operation, give particulars of the operation for which consent has been refused (unless such particulars are given in the decision notice);

(d) in the case of a management notice appeal in relation to which the grounds of appeal include a ground that some owner or occupier of land other than the appellant should take all or any of the measures specified in the decision notice, or should pay all or part of their cost, state the full name and address of any such person;

(e) state the grounds of the appeal;

(f) if the appellant wishes to be heard by a person appointed by the National Assembly in connection with the appeal (rather than that the appeal be determined on the basis of written representations), say so and further state whether the appellant wishes to be heard at a local inquiry or, alternatively, at a hearing and, if a hearing, whether the appellant wishes the hearing to be held in private if the person hearing the appeal agrees; and

(g) if the appellant and the Council have agreed in writing that the time by which the notice of appeal must be received should be longer than that specified by the 1981 Act or, in the case of a management notice appeal, that the period which is to apply under Regulation 6(2)(a)(i) is to be longer than two months, be accompanied by a copy of the document recording that agreement.
