79.—(1) This regulation applies where a Scheme employer—

(a)has decided, or failed to decide any question falling to be decided by that employer under regulation 72 (first instance decisions), otherwise than in the exercise of a discretion; and

(b)is not an administering authority.

(2) Where this regulation applies, an administering authority maintaining a pension fund into which a Scheme employer pays contributions may appeal to the Secretary of State against the employer's decision on a question or failure to make a decision on a question.

(3) Such an appeal must be made by notice in writing given before the end of—

(a)the period of six months beginning with the relevant date; or

(b)such longer period as the Secretary of State allows.

(4) The relevant date is—

(a)where a Scheme employer has decided a question, the date of the notification of the decision; or

(b)where a Scheme employer has failed to decide a question, the date of the failure.

(5) For the purposes of paragraph (4)(b) a Scheme employer is to be taken to have failed to decide a question if it has not given a decision in writing at the expiry of three months beginning with the date on which the administering authority has requested a decision in writing.

(6) Subject to paragraph (7), the Secretary of State must make a decision on the appeal which is to take effect as a decision of the Scheme employer and must issue a notice in writing to the appellant and to any other person appearing to the Secretary of State to be affected by it.

(7) The appeal must be stayed if, before the appeal is determined, any application is made to the adjudicator under regulation 74 (applications for adjudication of disagreements), or reference to the administering authority under regulation 76 (reference of adjudications to administering authority) in respect of any of the matters which are the subject of the appeal under this regulation.

(8) The administering authority must inform the Secretary of State whether it wishes to continue with an appeal stayed under paragraph (7), or to withdraw it and if the appeal is continued, the Secretary of State must make a decision under paragraph (6).
