Commentary on Sections and Schedules

Part 3 – Regulation of Provision of Childcare in England

Chapter 5 – Common Provisions
Section 73 - Procedure for taking certain steps

145.Section 73 sets out the procedure for taking certain steps such as refusing an application for registration, imposing, varying, removing or refusing to remove conditions on registration and cancelling registration. Subsection (4) requires the Chief Inspector to give 14 days notice before taking such a step and the person concerned must be given an opportunity to make an objection if he so wishes. However, the Chief Inspector may take such a step before the 14 days is up if the applicant indicates he will not be objecting.

146.The taking of certain steps does not have effect until the time for appealing has expired or, if an appeal is brought, until the appeal is determined. There is an exception to this where the person affected has notified the Chief Inspector that he does not intend to appeal (see subsections (8) and (9)).
