4(1)The Commissioners may direct the Gambling Commission to reinstate a remote operating licence suspended pursuant to a direction under paragraph 3 if the Commissioners are satisfied that—U.K.
(a)the breach specified in the final notice has been remedied in full,
(b)there are no other grounds on which a breach notice could be given in respect of the licence, and
(c)the holder of the licence has given to the Commissioners any security requested by them for the payment of amounts of general betting duty, pool betting duty and remote gaming duty likely to be due in future in respect of any activity authorised by the licence.
(2)Where the holder of a suspended licence requests the Commissioners to give a direction under this paragraph and the Commissioners refuse to give the direction, they must notify the holder of their decision.
(3)That decision is to be treated as a relevant decision for the purposes of sections 15A and 15C to 16 of FA 1994 (customs and excise reviews and appeals) and, accordingly, the notice under sub-paragraph (2) must include an offer of a review of the decision under section 15A of that Act.
(4)Only the holder of the suspended licence may bring an appeal under section 16 of FA 1994 as applied by sub-paragraph (3).
5(1)An appeal tribunal may direct the Gambling Commission to reinstate a remote operating licence suspended pursuant to a direction under paragraph 3 if the tribunal gives permission to appeal against a decision to give a final notice under section 16(1F) of FA 1994 (appeal out of time).U.K.
(2)The reinstatement of a remote operating licence pursuant to a direction given under sub-paragraph (1) does not prevent the Commissioners from giving a further direction under paragraph 3(1) in reliance on the final notice if—
(a)the decision to give the notice is upheld (in whole or in part) in the proceedings on the appeal or any further appeal, or the proceedings on the appeal or any further appeal have been abandoned, withdrawn or discontinued, and
(b)the period during which any further appeal may ordinarily be brought has ended without an appeal being brought.
(3)In this paragraph “appeal tribunal” has the same meaning as in Chapter 2 of Part 1 of FA 1994.
