Section 9: Appeals, etc.

(1)
Any person aggrieved by the proposal of the director to reject an application for registration may, within sixty days after the date of notice of intention to reject the application is given to him, lodge with the secretary a notice of appeal to the Council.
(2) The notice of appeal shall be in writing setting out the grounds on which it is made and the Secretary shall lay it before the meeting of the Council next holding after the notice of appeal was lodged with him.
(3) Where an appeal is allowed, the Council shall cause the Director to issue a certificate of registration in that behalf and where an appeal is disallowed, the aggrieved party shall, subject to the applicable rules of court, have a right of further appeal to the Federal High Court.
(4) Appeals shall lie from decisions of the Federal High Court under this section in the same manner and to the same extent as appeals from the decisions of the court in civil proceedings given by that Court sitting at first instance.
