#### 45NE Reactivating the withdrawn claim
If, within 28 days from the day on which the Secretary gave the acknowledgment notice, the claimant, or a person on behalf of the claimant, requests the Secretary to treat the oral withdrawal of the claim as if it had not been made, the oral withdrawal is taken not to have been made.
> Note: A request made under section 45NE has the effect of reactivating the claim. In particular the commencement day of the claim stays the same.
