Duty to give reasons for a decision not to accept a notification

1 If the Secretary of State decides not to accept a notification, the Secretary of State must, without undue delay, provide written reasons to the Presiding Officer as to why it is considered that the requirements set out in paragraph 14(1)(a) to (c) have not been met. 2 Such a decision does not prevent a separate notification from being made in relation to the same replacement EU act in accordance with this Part of this Schedule. 3 The Presiding Officer must, as soon as possible, provide any reasons given in accordance with sub-paragraph (1) to the members who have agreed to the notification under paragraph 11.
