Part 8: Appeals and super-complaints Chapter 1: Appeals Section 168: Appeals against OFCOM notices
This section allows for appeals against decisions by OFCOM to issue a confirmation decision, a notice under section 121(1) or a penalty notice. An appeal may be brought to the Upper Tribunal by any person with sufficient interest in the decision, although anyone other than the recipient requires permission from the Upper Tribunal to appeal.
	The Tribunal will apply the same principles as a court would when hearing an application for judicial review.
	The Upper Tribunal may either dismiss the appeal or quash OFCOM’s decision. Should the Tribunal quash the decision then the Tribunal must remit the decision back to OFCOM for reconsideration, with any directions that the Tribunal thinks are appropriate.
