Article 94 of the BMA Law allows a licensee 10 days following the administration taking effect in which to appeal to the Minister of Finance. If the Minister refuses the appeal, the licensee has a further 10 days from the date of the refusal in which to lodge an appeal at the courts. So as to reduce the potential damage of an administration order being applied and then withdrawn on appeal, where feasible the BMA will give advance notice to a licensee's Board of its intention to seek an administration, and allow the Board the right of appeal prior to an administration notice being formally served.
