22E. Application to Circuit Court to confirm decision to impose major sanction

(1) Where a person does not appeal against a decision by the Commission to impose a major sanction under section 22A(3)(b)(ii) to the Court within the period specified in section 22A(6), the Commission shall, as soon as practicable after the expiration of that period, by motion on notice to the person concerned, make an application in a summary manner to the Court for confirmation of a decision to impose a major sanction.

(2) The Court may, on the hearing of an application under subsection (1) -

(a) confirm the decision the subject of the application, or

(b) where it is satisfied on the basis of the evidence before it that there is a manifest and fundamental error of law that undermines the basis for the decision -

(i) annul the decision and substitute such other decision as the Court considers appropriate, or

(ii) remit the matter to the Commission for reconsideration and the making of a new decision, with or without directions as the Court considers appropriate.
