Termination orders: conditions8

This regulation applies where a notice of proposed termination has been served in accordance with regulation 6(3).
2
The Welsh Ministers may not make the termination order to which the notice of proposed termination relates unless—
a
the period of 28 days for making objections, beginning with the date of service of the notice of proposed termination, has ended without any objections being made by a person on whom the notice was served,
b
where an objection was made by such a person within that period, all such objections are withdrawn, or
c
if an objection has been made to the Welsh Ministers before the end of that period and the objection has not been withdrawn, they have—
i
caused a public local inquiry to be held, or
ii
afforded to the persons described in paragraph (3) an opportunity to appear before and be heard by a person appointed by the Welsh Ministers for that purpose.

The persons are—
a
the person making the objection, and

if the person referred to in sub-paragraph (a) accepts the opportunity to appear before and be heard at a hearing—
i
any other person on which the notice of proposed termination has been served, and
