(2) Where this section applies, the relevant public authority which prepared the plan must, no later than 5 years after the date of approval of the plan—

(a) review the plan,

(b) make such amendments (if any) to the plan as the authority considers necessary or expedient, and

(c) submit it to the Bòrd.

(3) Sections 3(4) to (6) and 5 apply in relation to the review and amendment of a plan under subsection (2) of this section as they apply in relation to the preparation of a plan pursuant to a notice under section 3(1).

(4) A relevant public authority may, without undertaking a review, at any time amend a Gaelic language plan published under section 5(9) (for example, by correcting an error or by updating factual information which has changed) in a way that does not alter the plan substantially.
