67: Determination of appeals

You could also call this:

“What happens when you ask the High Court to look at a decision again”

When you appeal a decision under section 65, the High Court can decide what happens next. The court can do one or more of these things:

The court can agree with the original order, change it a bit, or completely change it. This means they can keep things the same, make small changes, or make big changes to the original decision.

The court can also use any powers that the Rulings Panel could have used when they first looked at your case. This means the court has a lot of options to decide what should happen.
