71 Right of group member to opt out
The Court is to fix a date before which a group member may opt out of representative proceedings in the Court.
A group member may opt out of the representative proceedings by written notice given before the date so fixed.
The Court may, on application by a group member, the representative party or the defendant in the proceedings, fix another date so as to extend the period during which a group member may opt out of the representative proceedings.
Except with the leave of the Court, the hearing of representative proceedings must not commence earlier than the date before which a group member may opt out of the proceedings.
