(3) If the authority considers that the rules should include such a right, it must include provision to that effect when it makes the rules.
(4) If the authority does not consider that the rules should include such a right, it must inform the Lord Chancellor of—
(a) its decision, and
(b) its reasons for reaching that decision.”
