NCN [2024] UKFTT 001053 (GRC).

Case No. FT/PEN/2024/0071

In the First-tier Tribunal

(General Regulatory Chamber)

Pensions

Before: District Judge Moan

Appellant: Riverness Limited

Respondent: The Pensions Regulator

(The Tribunal Procedure (First-tier Tribunal) (General Regulatory Chamber) Rules 2009)

It is recorded that:

1.

The Appellant has issued a notice of appeal against a decision dated 13th February 2024 on an appeal notice dated 3rd March 2024

2.

Directions have already been issued on 6th March 2024, 9th April 2024 and 30th April 2024 regarding the documents required to support the appeal. The Tribunal notes that a copy of the penalty notice has been provided and the GRC1 appeal form is now signed.

3.

However, an appeal to the Tribunal can only arise either where a request for a review has been made within 28 days of the penalty and the penalty upheld or a request for a review has been declined. The Regulator has indicated that there has been no request for a review in which case, there is no jurisdiction to entertain this appeal.

4.

On 2nd August 2024, the Appellant was ordered to provide to the Tribunal confirmation of the review outcome or review refusal within 14 days of receipt of that order which was sent to parties on 9th August 2024.

5.

The Appellant was notified that failure to comply with these directions will result in the appeal being struck out for failure to comply with a direction of the Tribunal pursuant to Rule 8(1).

6.

As at today’s date, no reply has been received.

It is ORDERED that:

7.

The appeal will be struck out as the Tribunal lacks jurisdiction to deal with the appeal (no review having been requested) and for failure to comply with the directions of the Tribunal.

Signed: District Judge Moan sitting as First-Tier Tribunal Judge Moan
