I shall be brief. Amendment No. 15 allowsregulations to set a time limit for making applications to vary orrevoke modifications or conditions. Subsection (5) is not intended toprovide a lasting opportunity for challenge to the nationalauthority’s determination. It is important to achieve clarity assoon as possible about the terms on which consent is given and ifcircumstances change later, a fresh application for consent may bemade.
