Preservation of right of appeal under Building Societies Act
126. In this article a “pre-commencement decision” means—
(a)a decision falling within section 46(1) of the original Building Societies Act (as it has effect by virtue of paragraph 9 of Schedule 6 to the 2BCD Regulations);
(b)a determination or requirement falling within section 46(2) of that Act.
(2) Where, before commencement—
(a)a pre-commencement decision was taken against which an appeal may be brought to a tribunal constituted in accordance with section 47 of the original Building Societies Act (“a building society tribunal”);
(b)the period in which an appeal against that decision could be brought has not expired; and
(c)no notice of appeal has been sent in relation to the decision,
an appeal may be brought against that decision under section 46(1) or (2) of the original Building Societies Act and the repeal of that section or the repeal or amendment of the section under which the decision was taken does not affect the continuity of the period set by or under that Act as the period within which an appeal against that decision may be brought.
