sec.387 Applications for reconsideration of original decisions
A person who has been given, or is entitled to be given, an information notice for a decision mentioned in schedule 6 (an original decision ) may apply to the chief executive to reconsider the decision. See part 1 for requirements about the application. The application must be made within— for a person who has been given an information notice for the original decision—28 days after the day the person is given the notice; or for a person who has not been given an information notice for the original decision—the longer of the following periods— 28 days after the day the person becomes aware of the decision; if the person asks for an information notice for the decision—28 days after the day the person is given the information notice. The chief executive may, at any time, extend the period within which the application must be made. Subject to subsection (5) , the application does not affect the operation of the original decision or prevent the decision being implemented.
