(4)A notification under subsection (1) must be given as soon as reasonably practicable after the body considers the duty under that subsection to have arisen.

(5)A body to which subsection (2) applies must obtain the approval of the IFR before it takes any step mentioned in subsection (1).

(b)where the body is a formerly regulated club, it is satisfied that the body has taken all reasonable steps to ensure that a team customarily plays its home matches at the ground.

(7)The IFR may not grant approval in any other circumstances.

(8)The IFR must, as soon as reasonably practicable after the body has sought approval, decide whether to grant approval under subsection (6).

(9)The IFR must notify the body of its decision to grant, or not to grant, that approval and give reasons for its decision.
