A right of appeal against a Housing authority’s decision lay only against the original decision itself after a review, and the notice of appeal was to be given with 21 days of the original review. A council in its discretion can decide to reconsider or review a review decision formerly given under s.202(1). This was an appropriate case for this council to do so where it was being represented to it that on the original review some material argument had not been considered. A reconsideration after a review was not appealable, even on a discretionary basis by the court, and the time limit would not run from such date. The time limit for appealing on a point of law to the county court began with the initial review.
