The Lord Chancellor may make an order under section 164(2) only on the recommendation of an interested body.
An interested body must, if requested to do so by the Lord Chancellor, consider whether or not it is appropriate to make a recommendation for such an order.
An interested body must, before making a recommendation for such an order—
publish a draft of the proposed recommendation,
invite representations regarding the proposed recommendation, and
consider any such representations which are made.
Where the Lord Chancellor receives a recommendation from an interested body for an order under section 164(2), the Lord Chancellor must consider whether to follow the recommendation.
If the Lord Chancellor decides not to follow the recommendation, the Lord Chancellor must publish a notice to that effect which includes the Lord Chancellor's reasons for the decision.
