#### 106 Recommendations by Panel to CSC
(1) If the Panel makes recommendations to CSC in relation to a decision referred to it under section 99, then, after CSC takes into account:
(a) the recommendations of the Panel; and
(b) any other matter that CSC considers relevant;
CSC must make a decision in writing:
(c) confirming the decision under review; or
(d) varying the decision under review; or
(e) setting aside the decision under review and substituting a new decision.
> Note: Part 5 of the Australian Defence Force Cover Act 2015 contains similar provisions for CSC to take into account recommendations of the Panel relating to decisions referred to it under that Part, and to confirm or vary those decisions or set them aside and substitute new decisions.
(2) CSC’s written decision must include the reasons for its decision.
(3) CSC must make a copy of its written decision available to the applicant.
