where the authority does not give written notice under paragraph 3(1) or (2) requiring further information, the period of eight weeks from the later of—
i
the day immediately following the day on which the authority receives the application, and
ii
the day on which the authority receives the fee payable under paragraph 4; or
b
where the authority gives written notice under paragraph 3(1) or (2) requiring further information, the period of eight weeks from the day immediately following the day on which the undertaker provides the further information; or
c
such longer period as may be agreed in writing by the undertaker and the authority.
