This adran has no associated Nodiadau Esboniadol

(1)If [F2a regulator] gives a person (“A”) a notice to which this section applies, it must—

(b)allow him access to any secondary material which [F3, in the regulator's opinion,] might undermine that decision.

(2)But [F4the regulator giving the notice] does not have to allow A access to material under subsection (1) if the material is excluded material or it—

(b)was taken into account by [F4the regulator giving the notice] in A’s case only for purposes of comparison with other cases.

(3)[F5The regulator giving the notice] may refuse access A to particular material which it would otherwise have to allow him access to if, in its opinion, allowing him access to the material—

(a)would not be in the public interest; or

(b)would not be fair, having regard to—

(i)the likely significance of the material to A in relation to the matter in respect of which he has been given a notice to which this section applies; and

(ii)the potential prejudice to the commercial interests of a person other than A which would be caused by the material’s disclosure.

(b)the reasons for it.

(6)“Secondary material” means material, other than material falling within paragraph (a) of subsection (1) which—

(a)was considered by [F9the regulator giving the notice] in reaching the decision mentioned in that paragraph; or

(b)was obtained by [F10the regulator giving the notice in connection with the matter to which that notice] relates but which was not considered by it in reaching that decision.

(7)“Excluded material” means material which—

[F11(a)is material the disclosure of which for the purposes of or in connection with any legal proceedings is prohibited by [F12section 56 of the Investigatory Powers Act 2016]; or]

Nodiadau Esboniadol

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.
