Any person aggrieved by any decision of the Board (other than in relation to a non-compliance notice, in respect of which an appeal may be lodged under section 26(6)) may, within twenty days from the date on which the notice is issued or decision notified, or such period as the Appeals Tribunal may allow in a particular case, appeal to the Appeals Tribunal, subject to further appeals, but only on points of law, to the Grand Court and Court of Appeal; and the decision of the Court of Appeal shall be final: Provided that, in an appeal under this section, an appeal by either party shall operate to automatically suspend any order made by the Board unless, due to the gravity of a contravention and other circumstances of the case, the Board directs that, regardless of whether or not an appeal is subsequently lodged, the order shall enter into effect immediately or on a particular date, and this part of the order shall not be subject to appeal.
The procedure on an appeal to the Appeals Tribunal under subsection (1) shall be by way of notice of appeal and be by way of re-hearing.
In any case where an appeal under subsection (1) lies from a decision of the Board, the document notifying the decision of the Board to the person concerned shall state —
the right of appeal to the Appeals Tribunal; and
the period within which the appeal may be brought.
In subsection (1) the relevant date is —
in the case of a non-compliance notice, the date on which the notice takes effect under section 26; and
in the case of any decision of the Board other than a decision to issue a non-compliance notice, the date on which notice of the decision was given to the person desiring to appeal.
On an appeal against a non-compliance notice, the Appeals Tribunal may either cancel or affirm the notice and, if it affirms the notice, it may do so either in its original form or with such modifications as the Tribunal may think fit.
