(1)Special control provisions shall provide that where the local housing authority make an occupancy direction in respect of a house they shall give written notice of the direction to the person having control of the house and the person managing it and at the same time give them a written statement of the authority’s reasons.
(2)A person aggrieved by an occupancy direction may, within 21 days after the date of the service of notice as mentioned in subsection (1), appeal to the county court.
(3)If on appeal it appears to the court—
(a)that there has been any informality, defect or error in, or in connection with, the authority’s decision, or
(b)that the authority acted unreasonably,
the court may make such order either confirming, quashing or varying the notice as it thinks fit.
(4)In so far as an appeal is based on the ground mentioned in subsection (3)(a), the court shall dismiss the appeal if it is satisfied that the informality, defect or error was not a material one.
(5)If an appeal is brought the direction does not become operative until—
(a)a decision on the appeal confirming the direction (with or without variation) is given and the period within which an appeal to the Court of Appeal may be brought expires without any such appeal having been brought, or
(b)if a further appeal to the Court of Appeal is brought, a decision on that appeal is given confirming the direction (with or without variation).
(6)For this purpose the withdrawal of an appeal has the same effect as a decision confirming the direction or decision appealed against.]
