I move amendment No. 56:

In page 60, to delete lines 34 to 38, and in page 61, to delete lines 1 to 9, and substitute the following: “(9) (a) Any person may appeal the decision by a planning authority on an application for a licence, a continuation of a licence, a condition of a licence, or a revocation of a licence under this section to the Commission, not later than 4 weeks from the date of the publication of the decision of the planning authority, and no payment of any fee shall be required for the making of such an appeal unless they are the applicant for the licence.

(b) Any appeal sought under this section shall be included in the register of the relevant planning authority, and the particulars of the licence application and appeal shall be published on the website of the planning authority and on the website of the Commission within 3 days of such an appeal being sought.

(c) Any person may make observations on the appeal within 5 weeks of the publication of the particulars under paragraph (b), and no payment of any fee shall be required for the making of such observations unless they are the applicant for the licence.”.
