Anglo Irish Bank Corporation Act 2009

Limitation of judicial review of the Assessor’s determination.

32.— (1) Leave shall not be granted for judicial review of the Assessor’s determination under section 25 or any other decision in relation to compensation unless—

(a) either—

(i) the application for judicial review is made to the High Court within one month after the Assessor’s report to the Minister, or the notice to the applicant of the decision, as the case may be, or

(ii) the Court is satisfied that—

(I) there are substantial reasons why the application was not made within that period, and

(II) it is just, in all the circumstances to grant leave, having regard to the interests of other affected persons, and

(b) the Court is satisfied that the application raises a substantial issue for the Court’s determination.

(2) The Court may make such order on the hearing of the judicial review as it thinks fit, including an order remitting the matter back to the Assessor with such directions as the Court thinks appropriate or necessary.

(3) This section applies to the Minister in the same manner as it applies to a person who has or claims a right to compensation.
