sec.203Notices for representative complaint

### sec.203 Notices for representative complaint For a representative complaint, each class member for the complaint must be given notice of the following matters— the making of the complaint and the right of the member to opt out of the complaint before the date fixed by the tribunal under section 195 ; the giving of a written notice of not continuing with the complaint to the tribunal under section 193 ; an application to the tribunal for the dismissal of the complaint; an application to the tribunal for approval of a settlement of the complaint. The notice must be given by the person, in the way and within the time directed by the tribunal. The tribunal may, by order, direct the person who is required to give the notice to include other information in the notice. A notice about a matter for which the tribunal’s leave or approval is required must state the period within which a person may apply to the tribunal, or take some other step, in relation to the matter. The tribunal may direct that notice be given by publishing a notice on a website or in another place likely to be accessible to the class members for the representative complaint. The tribunal must not direct that notice be given personally to each class member for the representative complaint unless the tribunal considers that giving personal notice to each class member would be reasonably practicable and not unduly expensive. The failure of a class member for the representative complaint to receive or respond to a notice does not affect a step taken, or an order made, in the representative complaint. s 203 prev s 203 om 2009 No. 24 s 1343 pres s 203 ins 2024 No. 47 s 47 (sec.203-ssec.1) For a representative complaint, each class member for the complaint must be given notice of the following matters— the making of the complaint and the right of the member to opt out of the complaint before the date fixed by the tribunal under section 195 ; the giving of a written notice of not continuing with the complaint to the tribunal under section 193 ; an application to the tribunal for the dismissal of the complaint; an application to the tribunal for approval of a settlement of the complaint.
