This paragraph applies where—

a

an unincorporated association receives a gift in respect of which an entry falls to be made in the register under paragraph 7, and

b

at the time when the gift is received there is no entry in the register in respect of that unincorporated association.

2

The Commission shall not include in the register any information that would or might identify a person as someone by or through whom the gift was made unless—

a

they have given to the person a notice stating that they propose to include such information, and inviting representations on the matter, and

b

they decide, having considered any representations made by the person, that it is reasonable to include such information in the register.

3

The Commission shall make reasonable efforts to give a notice under sub-paragraph (2)(a) in any case where, if a notice is not given, sub-paragraph (2) prevents information from being included in the register.

4

The Commission shall not make a decision on the matter referred to in sub-paragraph (2)(b) until after the period of 45 days beginning with the date on which they gave the notice under sub-paragraph (2)(a), unless representations from the person concerned are received before the end of that period.

Once they have made a decision on that matter the Commission shall give notification of it to the person concerned.
