S.L. 597.4 Art. 81Extension of time limits.

(1) The Comptroller may, at the request of the person or party concerned or at the Comptroller’s own initiative extend a time or period extend any time limit in these rules where he is satisfied that the failure to do something under these rules was wholly or mainly attributed to a delay in, or failure of, a communication service:

Provided that the request for extension is received before the expiration of said time limit.

(2) Any extension under sub-rule (1) shall be:

(a) made after giving the parties such notice; and

(b) subject to such conditions, as the Comptroller may direct.

(3) In this rule "communication service" means a service by which documents may be sent and delivered and includes post, electronic mail, online submissions and courier.
