one or more characteristics or personal attributes of S when associated with the applicant,

will put S or a person living with S at serious risk of being subjected to violence or intimidation.

contain—

i

a statement of the grounds on which the application is made;

confirmation that S consents to the making of the application;

the name and registered number of the applicant;

the address of the registered office of the applicant;

the e-mail address of the applicant, if any;

the name and any former name of S;

the date of birth of S;

the usual residential address of S; and

the e-mail address of S, if any; and

Where the application is unsuccessful, the notice under paragraph (5) must inform the applicant of the applicant's right to apply for permission to appeal against the determination within 28 days beginning with the date of the notice.
