Provisions relating to administration - Enforcement orders

154: Appeals to Court of Appeal

You could also call this:

"Appealing to a higher court if you disagree with a decision"

If you are a party to an appeal under section 153, you can appeal to the Court of Appeal. You need to get the Court of Appeal's permission to do this. You can only appeal if the High Court made a decision about a question of law that you disagree with. The Court of Appeal has the same power as the High Court to make decisions about the appeal. You can think of the Court of Appeal as a higher court that can review the decisions made by the High Court.
