222D Duty of relevant registrar to give notice of appeal and appeal hearing
The relevant registrar must give notice of the appeal to the respondent—
if the notice of appeal was given under section 222(4) or (5)—within 7 days of the notice being received by the registrar under section 222B; or
otherwise—within 7 days of the filing of the notice of appeal in the District Court registry.
Notice under subsection (1) must include a copy of the notice of appeal.
Also, at least 10 days before the District Court hears an appeal, the relevant registrar must give notice of the hearing to the appellant and respondent.
If a respondent is a police officer, notice under subsection (1) or (3) may be sufficiently given to that respondent by giving notice to the commissioner of the police service.
If a respondent is an officer of a public sector unit, notice under subsection (1) or (3) may be sufficiently given to that respondent by giving notice to the chief executive officer of the unit.
Subsections (1) and (3) do not stop the relevant registrar from giving any notice about the appeal at any time to anyone.
