75. Extensions of time
Feedback & supportLast amended by an amending law of 2022.
A person that, in any particular case, is unable to do any thing that the person is required to do under this Act within the time specified for it may apply in writing to the Agency for an extension of time.
writing
“writing” includes any mode of representing or reproducing words, figures, drawings or symbols in a visible form.
The Agency may grant an extension of time (whether for the same or less than the period of extension applied for), upon being satisfied that there are good reasons to do so.
Agency
“Agency” means the National Environment Agency established by the National Environment Agency Act 2002;
The Agency may grant the extension of time under subsection (2) after the time sought to be extended has expired, but only if the application by the person was made to the Agency before the expiry of the time sought to be extended.
Where subsection (3) applies, the Agency must extend the time to a date after the date of the decision of the Agency on the application and, to avoid doubt, time is treated as extended so long as the Agency has not made its decision.
The Agency may grant one or more extensions of time under and in accordance with this section.
