(1)On a review under section 62, the review panel appointed under section 55 to conduct it—
(a)must consider—
(i)whether the panel which determined, under section 60, that the relevant person is precluded from being offered a redress payment, or, as the case may be, would not otherwise have been eligible for a redress payment, ought to have reached a different determination, and
(ii)in a case where additional evidence is provided to or obtained by the review panel, whether the application ought to be determined differently as a result,
(b)may uphold or reverse the determination.
(2)Once the review panel has conducted the review, Redress Scotland must inform the Scottish Ministers who must, as soon as reasonably practicable—
(a)notify the relevant person of the review panel's determination,
(b)provide the person with a summary, provided by Redress Scotland, of the review panel's reasons for reaching that determination.
(3)Where the review panel reverses a determination that the relevant person is precluded from being offered a redress payment, the Scottish Ministers must refer the application or, as the case may be, the request for a review under section 54 to the panel which made the determination under section 60(4), to determine it.
(4)The determination of the review panel under this section is final.
