Fees on appealsE+W+S

21.—(1) The fee payable on an appeal made in accordance with the provisions of Regulation 18 is the same amount as the fee payable under Regulation 20(1).

(2) Save as provided in paragraph (4), every fee prescribed by paragraph (1) as the fee payable on an appeal shall be paid at the same time as the appeal is made, and if that fee is not so paid the Secretary of State shall not be obliged to deal with the appeal.

(3) After the completion of the examination for the purposes of the appeal the Secretary of State may repay to the appellant, as he thinks fit, either the whole or a part of the fee paid on the appeal where it appears to him there are substantial grounds for contesting the whole or part of the decision appealed against.

(4) A fee payable on an appeal in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Regulation shall be payable notwithstanding that the vehicle is not submitted for examination in accordance with the provisions of Regulation 18:

Provided that if the appellant has before the time fixed under Regulation 18 for the carrying out of the examination given the Secretary of State not less than two days' notice (whether in writing or otherwise) at the office of the traffic area at which his appeal was lodged or if he has been given such a notice as is specified in Regulation 18(2), at the address specified in that notice as the address to which any communication relating to the appeal is to be sent, that the appellant does not propose to submit the vehicle for examination at that time, the appeal shall be treated for the purposes of this Regulation as one in respect of which no fee is payable and any amount previously paid in respect of such a fee shall be repaid by the Secretary of State to the appellant unless another time is arranged for the carrying out of the examination.
