(a) in the case of the applicant—

(i) an application made in accordance with regulation 5; and

(ii) any written comments made under regulation 8(3);

(b) in the case of the Welsh Ministers, the Welsh Ministers’ review statement and accompanying documents, materials and evidence;

(c) in the case of an interested person, any written representations previously made under section 2A of the 1990 Act by that person;

(d) in the case of any person or body given notice under regulation 7(1)(b), any written representations previously made by such person or body about the Welsh Ministers’ proposal to include the building to which a review relates in a list.

(2) An interested person or any person or body given notice under regulation 7(1)(b) may, in addition to the representations referred to in paragraph (1)(c) or (d) (whichever the case may be), make further written representations under section 2D(5)(c) of the 1990 Act, and where doing so must send three copies of such representations to the appointed person within the period of four weeks beginning on the starting date.

(3) The appointed person must, as soon as practicable after receipt of any representations made under paragraph (2), send a copy of such representations to the applicant and the Welsh Ministers.

(4) The applicant and the Welsh Ministers must send to the appointed person two copies of any written comments they have about any representations made under paragraph (1)(c), (d) or (2) so as to be received within the period of six weeks beginning on the starting date.

(5) Where the appointed person has received any written comments in accordance with paragraph (4), the appointed person must—

(a) in the case of any such comments received from the applicant, send a copy to the Welsh Ministers; and

(b) in the case of any such comments received from the Welsh Ministers, send a copy to the applicant.

(6) Where paragraphs (2) to (4) impose a requirement on any person or body to send more than a single copy of any written representations or comments (whichever the case may be) to any other person or body, such requirement is to be construed as permitting the sending of only a single version of that document for the purpose of satisfying that requirement in any case where the person upon whom the requirement is imposed elects to send the representations or comments by means of electronic communications.
