Section 57: Appeals from the Consumer Credit Appeals Tribunal
97.Section 57 inserts a new section 41A after section 41 of the 1974 Act and establishes the right to appeal to the Courts of Appeal of England & Wales and Northern Ireland or Court of Session in Scotland on a point of law against a decision of the Tribunal. If the appeal court considers that the decision is wrong in law it may quash or vary the decision, substitute a decision of its own for the decision of the Tribunal or remit (with directions, if it wishes) the matter back to the Tribunal for a rehearing and decision. An appeal may be made from the Courts of Appeal to the House of Lords with the leave of the Court or of the House of Lords. Appeals from the Court of Session lie to the House of Lords in the manner provided for in section 40 of the Court of Session Act 1988.
