##### 230 Reconsideration of declarations
(1) Where AUSTEL gives a person a declaration under section 228 in respect of a service, the person may make a written request to AUSTEL for reconsideration of its decision to give the declaration.
(2) The written request must be made within:
(a) 21 days after the person is given the declaration; or
(b) if, as a result of a request made by the applicant within 21 days after being given the declaration, AUSTEL extends the period within which an application for reconsideration of its decision may be made—the extended period granted by AUSTEL for making the application.
(3) On receiving such a request, AUSTEL must reconsider its decision.
(4) If, after reconsidering its decision, AUSTEL is no longer satisfied as to the matters as to which it is required to be satisfied in order to give a declaration under section 228, it must revoke the declaration concerned and give to the person written notice accordingly.
(5) If, after reconsidering its decision, AUSTEL is still satisfied as to those matters, it must affirm its declaration and give to the person written notice of its decision, together with its reasons.
