The Court held that the right to seek leave to appeal and judicial review was preserved by the pre-7 May 2015 provisions pursuant to the Interpretation Act ss 17 and 18; the Tribunal validly notified the appellant when it sent the decision to the named representative because the representative had authorised and declared acceptance of service in the notice of appeal, which amounted to the memorandum contemplated by s386(4); time to apply began on 27 February 2014 and the applications filed on 26 May 2015 were out of time, so the applications were dismissed.
