58: Clarification of determination

You could also call this:

"The Commission can clarify a decision to make it clearer at any time."

Illustration for Telecommunications Act 2001

The Commission can change a decision to make it clearer if they think it needs clarification, or if someone asks them to. They can do this at any time, as long as no one is currently appealing the decision. You can find out more about how these changes are published by looking at Part 3 of the Legislation Act 2019. When the Commission makes one of these changes, it is called secondary legislation.
