(2)If representations have been made during the period of 60 days beginning with the day on which the original order was made, the person making it must (after the end of that period) lay before Parliament a statement containing—

(a)a summary of the representations; and

(b)if, as a result of the representations, he considers it appropriate to make changes to the original order, details of the changes.
