if CSC has delegated its powers to reconsider the decision to the Committee—to confirm, vary, substitute or set aside the decision; or

if CSC has delegated to the Committee any of CSC’s powers in relation to the decision (other than the power to reconsider the decision)—to exercise those powers; or

in any other case—to make recommendations to CSC in relation to the decision.

Paragraph (c)—see section 55F.

When reviewing a decision, a Committee:

must take into account any evidence relevant to the decision that is submitted to it; and

may also take steps to obtain any other evidence that it considers necessary for a proper review of the decision.
