#### 22AA Withdrawal by a joint applicant
If:
(a) an application made under section 20 for the grant of a permit was a joint application; and
(b) all of the joint applicants, by written notice served on the Joint Authority, tell the Authority that one or more, but not all, of them, as specified in the notice, withdraw from the application;
the following paragraphs have effect:
(c) the application continues in force as if it had been made by the remaining applicant or applicants;
(d) if the Joint Authority had informed the joint applicants that it was prepared to grant to the applicants a permit in respect of the block or blocks to which the application relates—the Joint Authority is taken not to have so informed the applicants.
