Where an applicant for a grant or a subsidised loan requests a review of an assessment of the applicant's contribution, the local authority must review the assessment.

A request for a review must be made before the end of the period of 21 days beginning with the day on which the notice under section 81(1) was given or such longer period as the authority may allow.

A review under subsection (1) is to be carried out by a person senior to the person who made the assessment being reviewed and who had no involvement in the making of the assessment.

The authority must notify the applicant of the decision reached on the review.

There is no right to request a review of a decision reached on review.
